About this home
*DO NOT DRIVE DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AT ANYTIME WITHOUT AN APPROVED SHOWING APPT W/YOUR REALTOR*
Welcome to your own private sanctuary—an extraordinary craftsman-style home nestled deep in the woods on a secluded half-mile shared driveway. Tucked away from the world, this one-of-a-kind residence is a rare blend of natural beauty, unique architectural charm, & refined comfort.
From the moment you arrive, the stone & cedar exterior sets the tone for what’s to come—unparalleled character, warmth, & craftsmanship. The driveway winds through the trees and opens up to a perfectly manicured landscape with a harmonious mix of open lawn & wooded serenity.
Step into the home through the oversized two-car garage, then ascend the striking split-level open staircase—just one of the many architectural highlights that make this home unforgettable. From here, choose to step down into the sunlit lower-level family room, where windows bring the outdoors in. This space also features one of two pellet stoves, creating cozy comfort during the winter months. A half bath & a separate garage bay—ideal for storing your ATV or outdoor gear—complete this level.
Upstairs, the main level is nothing short of breathtaking. An open-concept layout & lots of windows showcase the surrounding woods, offering peace & privacy at every turn. The chef’s kitchen boasts beautiful cabinetry, granite & natural stone countertops, a large island, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, & rustic barnwood floors. A charming butler’s pantry is perfectly tucked away, creating the ideal coffee nook or prep station.
At the heart of the home sits a stunning two-sided gas fireplace, anchoring the kitchen & adjacent sunken living room. Here, Juliet balconies, lots of windows for added natural light, & French doors offer enchanting views & access to the outdoors. Step into the screened-in porch built around a tree—a truly magical space where you can sip your morning coffee & enjoy the wildlife that shares your peaceful retreat.
Follow the open staircase to the upper level, where the home continues to impress. One side features a luxurious primary suite with a walk-in closet, dual sinks, and On the opposite side, two additional bedrooms with skylights & another full bath offer space for guests or family. This level is also warmed by its own pellet stove, perfect for chilly nights.
Outside, the property transforms into a woodland oasis.

Just beyond the patio is one of the most exceptional features of all—a 10x40 heated lap pool with an automatic cover & a nearby fire pit—the perfect place to relax & take in views of Middletown Valley in the fall & winter months.
A massive detached 3-bay garage provides more than enough room for all your hobbies & toys.
