House Tour. Tucked back from the road, the home sits cheerfully in a sun drenched clearing surrounded by a large pond, rocky outcroppings and wooded land. The journey begins in the great room, a sanctuary of tranquility adorned with pastoral window views that frame nature's ever-changing art. Bask in the warm glow of the oversized stone fireplace, the heart of this space, as bright natural light floods the room.

Breeze through to the open dining area, where the design creates a seamless flow to the kitchen, allowing you to never miss out on the soothing water views. Invite the outdoors in and enjoy this living space with exposed wood elements, dark stained pine floors throughout and a captivating fireplace. On the ground floor just off the living room, discover one bedroom and one full bath. Head up the stairs to the landing to find a sweet nook for reading and relaxing. Two more bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the second story.

The Grounds. Perched upon 3.61 acres, the property overlooks a picturesque pond and rolling hills. Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of nature from the screened porch. A perfect place for relaxation, it lets you embrace the outdoors while maintaining a sense of comfort. The deck becomes a stage for culinary creativity while you savor the joys of barbecue and cocktails against a breathtaking backdrop. A monumental fire pit, atop a rocky outcropping, offers a magical locale to gather under the open sky. Enjoy the pond all year round for fishing, boating, and ice skating.

Bonus! This place is a birdwatcher's paradise. Hummingbirds galore, woodpeckers, and music of migratory songbirds during the day and owls at night. From the deck, watch as great blue herons, kingfishers, and bald eagles hunt in the pond.
