Designed to bring the outdoors in, the home welcomes you with a stunning great room featuring a soaring knotty pine cathedral ceiling, a dramatic two-story wall of windows, and an electric wood stove that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly into the dining area and well-appointed galley kitchen, complete with granite countertops, an eat-up island, quiet dishwasher, and exhaust fan. The Florida room provides a front-row seat to breathtaking views of the surrounding timber and wildlife, while covered front and rear patios and a maintenance-free deck offer multiple spaces to relax and enjoy the peaceful setting. The main-floor primary suite features generous closet space with solid wood doors, while the luxurious bathroom showcases a Toto washlet toilet, imported Italian LED mirror, heated tile floors, granite vanity top, and a custom walk-in tile shower. William & Henry Old Growth Northern Hickory flooring from Pennsylvania extends throughout the main level, adding warmth and timeless character. A convenient main-floor laundry room includes a utility sink and pantry storage. A striking open staircase leads to the loft-style second bedroom, offering ample closet space and picturesque views. The finished lower level expands the living area with a spacious family room highlighted by another wall of windows, a third bedroom, office, wet bar with wine refrigerator, and a second full bath with walk-in shower. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and entrepreneurs alike will appreciate the impressive 2,700-square-foot heated attached garage. Featuring three overhead doors, a utility sink, and space for up to eight vehicles, this versatile area offers endless possibilities for storage, workspace, or entertaining.
