What's to Like about This Home
The sellers beautifully remodeled the existing home in 2010, rebuilding it out from the studs to create elegant open living spaces, a well-appointed kitchen with a polished granite island and countertops and professional Thermador appliances, a separate butler's pantry with a wine chiller and second dishwasher, vaulted breakfast area overlooking the fenced patio, pool, and pastures, and a master suite sanctuary with a steam shower, radiant-heated floors, and an expansive walk-in closet with built-in dressers and shelving.
What's to Like about the Property
The custom barn is fully equipped with electricity and running water, a heated tack room, 12' wide aisle, four matted stalls, and a walk-up loft with ample hay storage. A level pasture adjacent to the barn would be a perfect site for an indoor arena.
The current owners have made a substantial investment in the aesthetics of the land, lovingly creating eye-pleasing islands of ever-blooming perennials, luscious manicured lawns, and meandering paths, all in all a peaceful haven for people, wild birds, and horses.
