Beautiful fairytale woodland retreat set on 16 acres with plenty of space for hiking, hunting, or connecting with nature AND high speed internet available! As you enter the private, tree-lined driveway, you'll cross a quiet stream and ascend up the hill to the stone house with large front porch. Each stone on the home's exterior was collected by hand from this very property when the home was built by the family who owns it. Enter through the front door and there is a tiled foyer flanked on either side by space to entertain. The great room is the centerpiece of this home and features soaring beamed ceilings, an array of windows, and a large corner hearth with wood-burning insert and hardwood floors. Head into the kitchen and there is loads of storage, a suite of appliances including a stainless steel range, and a large breakfast nook that can easily seat a table for five. Maple cabinetry and gleaming white countertops complete the space. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large laundry room with wall to wall shelves for additional storage and a half bath. Walk through the kitchen towards the front of the home and there is a room that could serve many purposes either as a formal dining room for large gatherings, a home office, or as a fourth bedroom with a large closet. Perhaps the true gem of this home though is the sun room which is accessed through the sliding doors of the great room. This sun drenched room is surrounded by large windows and set atop a beautiful slate stone terrace crowned by a series of beautiful skylights. It's the perfect location for a morning cup of coffee, a yoga studio, family dining outdoors, or perhaps to escape with the perfect book. This room leads out to additional stone patios with views of the woodlands where deer, squirrels, fox, and birds can be frequently spotted. Upstairs, you'll find three large bedrooms each with spacious closets. The primary suite is upstairs and features it's own ensuite bath with walk-in shower, new light fixtures, and neutral ceramic tile. The full bath in the hall has also been updated and serves the other two bedrooms with it's large bathtub and vanity painted a vibrant blue. The basement completes the home and is partially finished with a large family room with wall to wall carpeting and could easily serve as a play room, rec room, home gym, or additional home office space. The utility room in rear of the basement houses the water heater and HVAC system and additional storage. There is no shortage of places to park here either as the two car attached garage is oversized and the long meandering driveway offers additional parking for large gatherings. The woods that surround the home include deer paths and an older chicken coop that could be easily brought back to use and a large wood shed.
