Ready to make your move to your forever home nestled in nature? This hillside beauty has plenty of room for all with views that will wow you! Original owners had this home built on 24 acres to their specs with many upgrades and details you won't want to miss. Imagine, a private driveway through the woods to a clearing which showcases a brick Colonial with a 3 car garage, a tennis/pickleball court, a cascading water feature and unsurpassed privacy. Want to know more? Let's meander up the natural rock pathway to the front door where you'll find an impressive double door entrance bringing you into the marble floored two story Foyer. On your left, you'll find a cozy TV room, complete with a gas fireplace and custom built-ins. As in true center hall Colonial's, a graciously sized Dining room is found on the right. Heading to the back of the house you'll find a cook's Kitchen, complete with double oven, island gas cooktop, more than enough cherry cabinetry and granite countertop space to soothe your soul, as well as a separate bar area with a wine fridge. The breakfast area and Family room flow from the Kitchen and have soaring vaulted ceilings, skylights and a wall of windows that will knock your socks off. The views from here are nothing but spectacular. The wood burning brick fireplace is a piece of art, handcrafted by brick sculpturer John Carlance, depicting a natural woods scene from mantel to ceiling. Looking for a retreat room?
