Perched high on a beautifully landscaped one-acre lot, this true custom-built home captures the feeling of a private mountain retreat, surrounded by mature trees, wildflowers, and extensive stone landscaping. Once part of an arboretum, the The Woodlands offers exceptional beauty and privacy in every season. A winding stone pathway leads to the welcoming covered front porch, setting the tone for craftsmanship found throughout this one-of-a-kind residence. The thoughtfully designed main level includes a spacious primary suite, and private office that can easily serve as a fifth bedroom, (home lives like a ranch!) The breathtaking great room is the heart of the home, featuring a soaring ceiling, dramatic stone fireplace, and expansive windows that frame spectacular views of the manicured grounds. Rich wood details throughout create a warm, inviting atmosphere, while the architecture embraces the natural surroundings with abundant light and stunning sight lines. Designed for gathering, the spacious kitchen features hickory cabinetry, a generous center island, dual pantries, and an open layout. The second story offers three more bedrooms, with two full baths. The finished basement adds substantial finished living space, a full bath, and an enormous storage area. An extra-tall, three-car side load garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, and equipment. Nestled in a true neighborhood, this remarkable home feels like a secluded retreat, yet it is just ten minutes from everyday conveniences.
