| Properties like this private 22.7-acre retreat are rare!
It is an idyllic setting with lovely fields, trails, pastures and a pond. The
English-style Cottage, built in 1994, features a delightful tiered entrance beyond the
picket fence. Cozy and welcoming, the home has wide pine floors, cathedral ceilings
throughout the main floor, and screened porches leading to decks. There are two propane fireplaces which enhance the
coziness inherent in the great room and the large bath. On the first floor are the living and dining rooms, the kitchen
and the master bedroom with the master bath. Off
the living room is a half bath. The lower level is called an English basement,
is finished, has a 9.5 foot ceiling, and contains the family room, a second bedroom, an
office/ library/third bedroom, a full bath with a gas heating stove, plus the utility and
laundry room.
Several outbuildings were designed for
equestrian use, including a 2-stall barn with a heated tack room, an equipment shed and a
hay barn, all within a convenient distance of one another.
The horse barn has attached run-ins, while the equipment shed provides plenty of
space for a tractor and gators. One of the propertys key features is its lighted
outdoor dressage arena. Expansive, the
grounds offer an incredible variety of gardens, woods, lawns, and stone walls, but there
is much more here, including a small pond, and a trail system on the property that
continues throughout the surrounding area, great for hacking, hiking, and cross country
skiing. |
