A straight shot along beautiful Oenoke Ridge from the vibrant downtown, you will be immediately captivated by its covered front porch and sunny upper deck. You will not be disappointed when you walk in the front door and see all the light! The heart of this home lies in the inviting living spaces, especially a gracious living room with a fireplace, picture window overlooking the private yard and access to the terrace with a stone fireplace. The eat-in gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream. A butler's pantry leads to the formal dining room and light filled family room, a favorite gathering spot. The designated office, first floor guest suite, and expansive mudroom complete the first floor. Upstairs you'll find an incredible great room with a cathedral ceiling, rustic beams and balcony. The two story primary suite, with dressing room and spa like bath, opens to a large western facing balcony. The four additional bedrooms have en-suite baths. The finished 3rd floor provides endless possibilities, from a gym, art studio, playroom ... The expansive flat yard is perfect for outdoor recreation and entertaining, from soccer games to garden parties and a potential pool site. There is even a sugar shack for continuing the tradition of making your own syrup. LOCATION is key! Nearby Scotts Corner, Bedford and Vista provide even more options for dining and shopping.
