Tucked away on 43.34 acres of private land, this ranch-style estate delivers wide-open space, privacy, and a home that feels like forever. A black iron gate opens to a drive lined with mature Bradford Pear trees, setting the tone for a truly special property. In addition to the main home, the property features two stocked ponds (one with a dock), a 3,381 sqft barn/workshop with a 1,015 sqft guest quarters above (not included in the home’s square footage), complete with a kitchenette and full bath. The barn was previously configured with six stalls and could easily be converted back, offering space for ranch operations, equipment storage, or workshop or hobby use. The main residence features four bedrooms and four and a half baths, offering light wood floors throughout and a functional layout with all bedrooms located on the first floor. Upon entry, formal living and dining rooms welcome you with a cozy fireplace and classic charm. Next, the expansive kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, a generous bar-height seating area, a secondary dining space, and a KitchenAid double oven. The adjoining second living area flows effortlessly from the kitchen and is highlighted by a brick fireplace extending to the ceiling, a wet bar with additional storage, and walls of windows that frame sweeping ranch views. Nearby, a staircase leads to a spacious upstairs bonus room with built-in storage and access to a walk-out deck. The covered patio opens to a heated pool with a tanning ledge and slide, along with a built-in grill and outdoor kitchen. Notable updates include a whole-house and barn backup generator ($40K), a heated pool (installed in 2006) with a new pump and heater, new upper-level decks and railings with fresh paint, updated and updated electrical panels, new interior and exterior paint, new recessed lighting, new fencing, and new carpet in the upstairs bonus room. The property recently appraised for $2.8M.
