This stunning contemporary ranch built in 1989 is perfectly designed for the entertainer or outdoor enthusiast, offering nearly 3,100 square feet of thoughtfully laid-out living space, an outbuilding with a shop, on a private 5.11-acre wooded parcel. Tucked away on a secluded private road, this home provides peaceful seclusion while embracing the natural surroundings with expansive windows and serene forest views throughout. Lovingly referred to by its longtime owner as the “Emerald Forest,” this property offers a rare sense of tranquility and connection to nature. The open-concept main living area flows seamlessly, featuring vaulted ceilings in the great room that create an airy, inviting atmosphere ideal for gatherings. A natural fireplace (plumbed for gas) serves as a cozy focal point, perfect for year-round enjoyment. There is a separate sitting area off one side of the living room, and a formal dining room off the other. All three rooms are situated to embrace the love of the outdoors. The expansive kitchen is a chef’s delight, boasting two ovens, two stovetops, abundant Corian counters, generous cabinetry, and plenty of room for multiple cooks. The layout opens directly to the dining and living spaces for effortless entertaining, while open sightlines allow natural light and wooded views to carry through the space—keeping you connected to the outdoors even while preparing a meal. A striking yet welcoming entry sets the tone, providing room for a large casual dining area, seating nook, or even a statement foyer table. The home includes 3+ bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, highlighted by a luxurious en suite master featuring dual shower heads for spa-like relaxation. Two additional bedrooms occupy the east wing, while the versatile fourth bedroom (or bonus room) on the west side includes its own full bath—ideal for guests—and showcases beautiful oak paneled walls that add warmth and character.
