Once in a lifetime, a truly magical property comes along. This custom-built, expansive cottage overlooks a spectacular and exceptionally private pond, creating a setting that feels entirely removed from the everyday world. Set on 10 acres of natural beauty, the property offers something new to discover around every bend. Wild gardens, woodland paths, and a lovingly created nature trail wind through the landscape, complete with a boardwalk and intimate overlooks. Creating this oasis was a true labor of love. Open and airy gathering spaces include a vaulted great room with book shelf surrounded seating area and an inviting dining room - all surrounded by walls of windows overlooking the pond.The thoughtfully designed kitchen is both functional and welcoming. A flexible main-level room serves beautifully as either a private home office or a first-floor bedroom, with a full bathroom conveniently located nearby. Covered front and rear porches invite you to relax with a morning coffee, entertain friends, or simply while away a summer afternoon surrounded by nature. Upstairs are two inviting bedrooms and a full bathroom. The primary bedroom enjoys romantic views across the pond, offering a peaceful retreat at the end of the day. A detached two-car garage with an adjoining oversized bonus room offers a world of possibilities, whether as a workshop, artist's studio, bunk room, recreation space, or even a potential accessory dwelling unit (subject to local regulations). Rarely does a property combine such extraordinary natural beauty with a home designed to embrace it. This is a place to explore, reflect, gather, and create lasting memories—a truly one-of-a-kind retreat.
