About this home

First time ever offered—an extraordinary private retreat on 7.26 wooded acres. Some homes cannot be replicated, and this is one of them. Tucked deep into a mature hardwood forest and accessed by a stunning 1,500+ foot private driveway lined with the area’s signature bigleaf magnolias, this all-brick 1.5-story home with a basement offers a level of privacy and natural beauty that is nearly impossible to find. Designed to embrace its surroundings, every window and outdoor space is framed by peaceful wooded views. The main level features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a spacious kitchen, formal dining room, sunlit breakfast area, main-level laundry, and a warm, inviting living space anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. Upstairs, a large bonus room with skylights and a full bath offers endless flexibility for a home office, guest suite, studio, or playroom, along with two oversized walk-in attic storage spaces. The partial basement expands the possibilities even further with a wood-burning stove, second fireplace, workshop, and abundant storage—perfect for hobbies, projects, or additional living space. Step outside to the newer screened porch and take in the quiet beauty of the surrounding forest, where deer, birdsong, and rustling magnolias create a setting unlike anything else on the market. A 24kW whole-house generator adds peace of mind and year-round comfort. Private. Timeless. One-of-a-kind. And now, for the first time, available for its next chapter.
