Set in the middle of 75 conserved acres and abutting hundreds more, the home is sited to take maximum advantage of the expansive mountain and river valley views, with southern and western exposures offering incomparable sunsets. The interior is graced by oversized windows that allow an abundance of natural light and passive solar gain throughout the cycles of the season and the day. The open floorplan is ideal for both entertaining and comfortable relaxation.
The current owners began with an already existing main house and through a collaborative engagement with local architect Randy Mudge, created a multi-use accessory building that combines contemporary flare and a connection to the traditional forms and charms of the areas historic, rural agrarian buildings. The resulting multi-purpose structure, which combines quality, drama and utility - offers a three-quarter bath, kitchen and a 30 X 48 open space for woodworking, a studio, or any variety of other potential uses one can imagine.
The main house - designed to take maximum advantage of both the light and views afforded by the site - offers a generous, mudroom entry with a tile floor and built-in cubbies for storage that make great use of the space. A large pantry and the first floor laundry are cleverly concealed behind sliding barn doors and the chefs kitchen, expertly designed with high-end appliances and the highest level of consumer amenities - two ovens, two sinks, two dishwashers & built-in espresso bar - presents granite counter tops and large center island.
The adjacent family room has a gas burning fireplace and a door out to the three-season screened porch. Hardwood and tile floors, built-ins, including bookshelves and cabinetry and trim details reveal themselves throughout. A convenient bar connects the kitchen to the formal dining room and Great Room which are divided by a dramatic two sided stone fireplace. Completing the first floor is a spacious guest suite and a large private office. Upstairs you will find four bedrooms including an additional suite with fireplace and walk in closets, an open loft, study, and game room over the three-car attached garage.
The attention to the exterior of this property exceeds all expectations. Extensive stonewalls, a large stone patio, and a landscaped yard, an in-ground custom hot tub, stone walls, perennial gardens, apple trees, berries and chicken coop all compliment the acreage immediately around the homes and barn.
