Few properties share the abundance of impressive attributes bundled into this 4-bedroom, 3-bath, 3440 square foot home. And while it is constructed from the finest materials, it is the setting and attention to detail that will blow you away.
Situated on two spectacular, separately-deeded, parcels totaling over 15 ACRES, this home is a joy to be in, and around. From the moment you drive up the town-maintained dead-end road, you have a sense that you are in for a treat.
The landscaping and grounds have been crafted for maximum enjoyment of the majestic mountain vistas. The house is strategically aligned to absorb the sun-drenched western 100-mile+ views. The front and rear TREX MAINTENANCE-FREE DECKS allow for comfortable out-door living, while the house itself assures your comfort no matter the room you’re in.
On the upper floor there is one large guest bedroom and a larger master with EN-SUITE BATH (with jetted-tub) and a huge 11×5 WALK-IN CLOSET. The OPEN-FLOOR PLAN kitchen/dining/living room feels perpetually fresh and comfortable with maple floors and cabinetry. The cathedral ceiling, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, and centrally located GAS FIREPLACE make for quite a special room. Large ENERGY-EFFICIENT ANDERSEN WINDOWS, including a great bay window, bring that magical view inside. A convenient slider to the rear deck off the dining / BREAKFAST ISLE means super easy access for entertaining and outdoor enjoyment. Along with the master-bath, there is a SECOND FULL BATHROOM on this level, as well as an ultra-convenient mud-room with access to the rear deck, the driveway, and the 2-CAR ATTACHED garage. Copious closets in every room, clever, well-designed storage spaces, most with their own lights, are throughout the house. Everything really can have its own place.
On the ground level, you will find no-less impressive features. The BLUE MAX INSULATED CONCRETE FORM FOUNDATION walls assure superior ENERGY EFFICIENCY from the ground up ( with a built-in passive radon mitigation system). The cold and moisture stays out and heat and dryness stays in! There are 2 additional bedrooms (one currently doubling as a den), a THIRD FULL BATHROOM, and several large closets and storage areas, plus a 22×26 family room, complete with large windows, its own gas stove, kitchenette, and a full-walk-out door. The pristine utility room is well-organized, spacious and easy to access. 2 – 275-gallon fuel-oil tanks, a water filtration system, air exchange system and 5-zone heating service all make for a super well-planned home management system.
Outside, the excellence continues. The detached 2-car garage has space for a workshop and could even be converted to livable space or great micro-business. Mature perennials dress the property boundaries, and there is an elegantly designed vegetable garden with raised beds protected from deer and other intruders with a lovely trellis and screen system. Fruit trees, berry bushes, ornamental trees spice the lawn all the way down to the half-acre pond, with floating dock!
Two minutes to Stamford or Hobart, 30 minutes to Oneonta, and under three hours to the GWB.
