Architecture that brings the outdoors in
The character of this home is in the details: sloping wood-plank ceilings, substantial exposed beams, dark brick accents and broad stretches of glass that frame the woods. The main living space feels connected to the landscape, with an inviting mix of sofas, sculptural chairs, colorful textiles and artwork. Settle into a window-side seat with a book, put on some music, or gather for an unhurried evening together.
A kitchen with personality
Bright green cabinetry, dark counters and warm wood finishes make the kitchen part of the home's design story. The dining area pairs a built-in striped banquette with wood chairs and windows on two sides, so even breakfast comes with a view of the trees. The table seats eight.
For cooking at home, there is a refrigerator, stove, oven, dishwasher and microwave, plus cookware, dishes and a selection of small appliances. Choose between a 14-cup drip coffee maker and an espresso machine for your morning cup.
Two ways to enjoy the fresh air
The spacious deck offers outdoor seating overlooking the lawn and surrounding trees, with a gas grill and pellet grill for meals outside. Just off the main living space, the porch makes a particularly inviting retreat: a wood ceiling, skylight, woven furnishings and room to linger over a conversation or a quiet afternoon.
Space for your own kind of downtime
A separate lower-level lounge and game room give everyone another place to unwind. Choose a board game from the home's collection, settle in for streaming TV or enjoy the Nintendo Switch. Sonos speakers bring music to the living room, primary bedroom and game room.
The home accommodates a maximum of eight guests and has three full bathrooms. The primary bedroom has an ensuite bathroom and direct deck access. A washer and dryer in the ground-level mudroom add convenience for longer stays.
The home has a private entrance and free driveway parking for up to four cars. The garage is not available to guests. From the driveway, follow the path to the yellow front door. Stairs connect the entry landing with the main living level.
