Description
Set on 26.42 acres just one mile from downtown, this exceptional private estate offers a rare combination of refined living, natural beauty, recreation, and convenience. At the center of the property is a custom ranch with more than 3,400 sq. ft. on the main level and approximately 5,100 sq. ft. of total living space, thoughtfully designed to take full advantage of its peaceful surroundings. Inside, craftsmanship and scale immediately stand out. Custom millwork, Andersen windows and doors, and soaring vaulted ceilings in the family room create a warm yet impressive interior. Brand-new, top-of-the-line carpet extends throughout the home, while an abundance of walk-in and oversized closets provides exceptional storage. Main-floor laundry adds effortless everyday functionality. The primary suite is a true private retreat, featuring a new walk-in Jacuzzi tub and direct access to the expansive screened deck. With its vaulted ceiling and sweeping views of the property, the screened outdoor living space is ideal for quiet mornings, relaxed evenings, and entertaining on a grander scale. An expansive front porch offers another inviting place to enjoy the setting. For the ultimate in at-home relaxation, a dedicated spa room features a brand-new hot tub. The walk-out lower level provides additional finished living space with tremendous flexibility for entertaining, recreation, guests, or additional private living areas. The home has been thoughtfully equipped for comfort and peace of mind with a new roof, whole-house generator, whole-home water filtration system, water softener, and central vacuum system. Beyond the residence, the property opens to a picturesque recreational setting with two spring-fed ponds offering scenic water views and fishing for bass, catfish, and bluegill. The surrounding acreage is rich with deer and turkey, while multiple barns and a detached garage provide exceptional space for equipment, recreational vehicles, livestock, hobbies, collections, or additional storage. Properties offering this combination of acreage, water, wildlife, substantial improvements, and proximity to town are increasingly difficult to find. Whether envisioned as a private country estate, recreational retreat, hobby farm, or legacy property to be enjoyed for generations, this is a truly distinctive offering where space, privacy, and lifestyle come together. This is part of a larger estate. Additional acreage available. MLS# 26054694.
