About this home

Welcome to The Belfort – a semi-custom sanctuary perfectly sized at 2,667 sq ft and thoughtfully sited on 3+ acres of peaceful countryside. This home blends refined finishes with relaxed livability, offering the space, style, and setting that today’s buyers are seeking. From the moment you arrive, the Belfort’s inviting large front and rear porches set the tone. These expansive outdoor living areas are ideal for rocking chairs, porch swings, and long evenings spent enjoying sunsets, starry skies, and the abundant nature that surrounds you. The home’s classic lines are complemented by a lifetime metal roof, providing enduring durability, low maintenance, and timeless curb appeal. Step inside to an airy, open layout highlighted by 10-foot ceilings that enhance the sense of volume and light. At the heart of the home is a spacious great room, seamlessly connected to the dining area and kitchen, creating one large, cohesive gathering space perfect for both daily living and entertaining. A gas log fireplace anchors the great room, adding warmth and ambiance at the touch of a switch. The kitchen is designed to be as beautiful as it is functional, featuring granite countertops, a classic subway tile backsplash, and ample cabinetry. Whether you’re cooking for a crowd or just enjoying a quiet morning coffee, this space accommodates it all with ease. Convenience and comfort define the main-level primary bedroom suite, offering true one-level living. This private retreat provides generous space for a king-sized bed and a sitting area, with direct access to a well-appointed en-suite bath and easy access to the main living areas—no stairs required. The layout is ideal for those seeking long-term livability, multigenerational flexibility, or simply the luxury of having everything you need on one floor. A dedicated laundry room adds everyday practicality, with room for storage, folding, and organization. Additional bedrooms and baths (on second floor) provide comfortable accommodations for family members, guests, or a home office. Energy efficiency and long-term value are built into the Belfort’s design. A high-end, efficient HVAC system helps maintain year-round comfort while keeping utility costs in check. Combined with the metal roof and quality construction, this home is designed for low maintenance and long-term peace of mind. Outside, your 3+ acre homesite delivers the country lifestyle so many buyers dream about: room to roam, garden, play, and simply breathe. Surrounded by a quiet country setting, you’ll enjoy a sense of privacy and serenity that’s increasingly rare—yet you’re still within a reasonable drive of town conveniences, schools, and recreation (details can be tailored to your specific location).
