Remarks:
Welcome to your own private mountain retreat on 30 acres, where peace, privacy, and possibility come together in a truly special setting. Tucked well off the main road, a long gated driveway follows a gentle stream before winding upward to this secluded mountain cove. Hidden from neighboring properties, this is a place where you can slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the freedom of having your own private sanctuary. Originally built in 1965 and recently extensively remodeled, this home blends timeless character w/ thoughtful modern updates. A mix of modern LVP and wood flooring flows throughout, complemented by oversized colonial trim, updated doors, recessed lighting, and replacement windows. A newer mini-split heating and cooling system provides efficient year-round comfort. The home also features an electric fireplace that is currently installed but offers the option to convert to gas, with existing gas stubbing in place. The beautifully renovated kitchen is truly the heart of the home, designed with both style & functionality in mind. New cabinetry with soft-close drawers, stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse-style stainless sink, tiled backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and a quartz breakfast bar create an inviting gathering space. The thoughtful touches continue with a pasta filler above the oven, charming beadboard ceiling, and a dedicated butler’s pantry featuring built-in shelving and additional storage. The primary suite offers a peaceful escape with lots of windows, walk-in closet, ceiling fan, and a luxurious en suite bath. The spa-like bathroom features a spacious glass shower, soaking tub, and elegant floor-to-ceiling porcelain tile, creating a relaxing retreat at the end of the day. Everyday living is made easier with a large laundry room w/ utility sink, and a convenient side entrance with a mudroom-style entry provides the perfect drop zone for outdoor gear after exploring the acreage. The home is thoughtfully wired for modern living, including power behind the TV and prewired HDMI connections. The shed off the 3 car carport offers a work shop that is fully wired with lighting & multiple outlets, three workbenches, shelving, & loft storage. The house attic offers additional storage with a pull-down ladder and a floored area running the length of the home. Additional improvements include a vapor barrier in the crawlspace, crawlspace dehumidifiers and ventilation fans, and warming tape on incoming well lines for added frost protection. Whether you envision gardening, homesteading, creating a private family retreat, pursuing a more self-sufficient lifestyle, or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of the mountains, this remarkable property offers the space and flexibility to make your vision a reality. With exceptional privacy, extensive updates, functional outbuildings, and 30 acres of natural beauty, this is more than a home—it’s a mountain lifestyle waiting to be enjoyed. -- Interactive 3D Map available: https://id.land/maps/15d0b3ba934ac3b00b563be862016a68/share/unbranded
