Property Description
Nestled on a tranquil, wooded 1.17-acre lot inside of an exquisite 22 acre wooded community! This place is a true sanctuary of rustic elegance and modern comfort. This custom Colonial log home, with its 2005 addition, offers over 5,100 sq. ft. of usable space to create memories, grow, and experience the peace of nature. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be welcomed by the warmth of walnut kitchen cabinetry, the rich grain of hickory hardwood floors, and the timeless beauty of granite countertops. The kitchen, a heartwarming space perfect for gathering, is complete with stainless steel appliances and a reverse osmosis water filtration system to ensure every detail is thoughtfully considered. Vaulted, beamed ceilings soar above you in the living room, anchored by a striking two-story stone fireplace that invites cozy evenings. There is one two story fireplace in the living room and a single-story fireplace in the lower level family room. The custom-stained wood shutters and built-in buffet add a handcrafted charm that makes this home feel like a labor of love. The owner’s suite is nothing short of luxurious, with a walk-in closet so spacious it rivals the size of some kitchens. Step outside to your private deck directly from the suite, where you can sip your morning coffee surrounded by the sights and sounds of nature. Outside, the magic continues. A 40-foot, two-tiered deck with Trex decking and vinyl railing becomes your private retreat for stargazing, family gatherings, or simply enjoying a quiet moment. Wander down to the paver patio, where the gentle sound of water flows from the koi pond, creating an atmosphere of serenity that’s hard to find. With three garage spaces, a full basement, and a spacious workshop, this home doesn’t just offer beauty – it delivers practicality, too. Only 20 minutes from Hagerstown, MD, this is a place where time slows down, where you can truly unwind and watch the seasons change. And don’t be surprised if you catch sight of a whitetail deer or wild turkey wandering through the trees. This is more than just a house; it’s a place to call home.
