This incredibly private and serene setting on 15.8 acres is walking distance to the charming village of Hancock. Located at the end of a well-maintained dirt road, quiet wooded paths lead around the house and open to an expansive lawn with gardens and stone walls. The custom contemporary home was designed for nature lovers with tall, carefully placed windows to bring the outdoors inside, along with a beautiful post and beam 3-season screen porch overlooking the grounds. With 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, the 4151.49 sf home has a flexible floor plan that includes two first-floor bedroom suites, a light-filled library, family room with fieldstone fireplace, living/dining room with fireplace and built-in shelves with cabinets, and a large kitchen with custom cherry cabinetry, pantry, mudroom, and office. Hardwood and slate floors run throughout, and 4 attics plus a walk-in cedar closet provide plenty of storage options. In addition, there is a 3-car attached garage, garden shed and woodshed with equipment storage. Recent improvements include a new roof, whole house generator, lawn & garden irrigation system, and 6 Mitsubishi heat pump splits installed for AC. The northern border of the property is Moose Brook. Walk right from the yard onto internal trails that follow the Brook and connect to thousands of protected acres that are part of the Harris Center SuperSanctuary.
