Set back down a long paved driveway, this property's picturesque setting provides complete privacy, breathtaking views and a tranquil atmosphere that truly defines country living at its finest. Discover the charm of this stunning 6 acre park-like property, featuring 3 ponds surrounded by stone walls (one with a timer-set fountain), meandering streams and frontage on the Rochester Creek. The adjoining property has been designated ''forever wild.'' For a unique outdoor experience, there is a custom built, equipped gazebo positioned to overlook the sparkling water ideal for outdoor entertaining and a cozy firepit to gather around and roast marshmallows. Custom built by a local craftsman and cabinet maker, this cedar sided masterpiece offers a peaceful retreat where every detail reflects thoughtful design and appreciation for nature's elegance. The custom gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream featuring top-of-the-line appliances, exquisite finishes, copious amounts of storage and ample space for culinary creativity. Hand pick fresh herbs and veggies from your own kitchen garden. Adjacent to the kitchen, the inviting screened room provides a serene space to enjoy morning coffee or relaxing evenings surrounded by nature. The multi-level deck with a view of the full backyard is a perfect place to dine and enjoy the hummingbirds, the great blue heron and fawns that prance about. All of this flows seamlessly into the large living room that overlooks the great outdoors. There is a large mudroom off the driveway that doubles as a game room with plenty of storage for shoes and coats. The primary suite is an oasis beyond compare tucked away from the other bedrooms. The bed is placed to look out on the ponds and luscious rear yard. Custom cherry floors, built-ins and outfitted closets add to the suite's luxuriousness. The bedroom's sitting room is a great place to unwind listening to music, watching a movie or cuddling up with a good book. Generously sized, but not overwhelming, this architectural gem offers private spaces while flowing perfectly for entertaining. A covered walkway leads to a stunning guest house with a gym and gracious living space which is beautifully designed. The main room hosts a generous kitchen, dining and sitting area with a stone fireplace. The living room/formal dining area is all glass and has a Murphy bed that can easily accommodate additional guests. Upstairs is a gracious bedroom overlooking the three ponds. Plenty of room to roam and enjoy luxurious living. You will never want to leave this paradise.
