This property will capture you from the moment you turn in the driveway. Beautifully sited with a wooded backdrop and expansive views of adjoining preserved farmland, the custom home exudes curb appeal. And features like the expanded parking tell you right away that attention has been given to enhancing both daily life and entertaining. Admire the professional landscaping and hardscaping, then enter the front door to the foyer and impressive great room beyond. The cathedral ceiling, gas fireplace, and open floor plan welcome you in. The scale, natural light, upgraded moldings and fixtures, warm wood flooring, and beautiful views create an irresistible aesthetic. Yet beyond the visual appeal and attention to detail is the exceptional practicality of this unique home. It's the perfect private, comfortable get-away for you and a fantastic spot for hosting family and friends. The kitchen has granite and stainless appliances, upgraded oak cabinetry, and a breakfast bar. There's a primary suite plus two additional bedrooms on the main level, and the baths are nicely appointed with higher-end features. The den, dining room, spacious mudroom/laundry room, and powder room round out the main floor. Both the kitchen and primary bedroom open to a rear deck that is ideal for nature lovers and birders. Enjoy woodpeckers, owls, hummingbirds, and native woodland creatures right outside your door. For larger gatherings or recreation, the finished lower level offers an expansive space with a bar/kitchen area, dedicated wine storage room, and light-filled walk-out to a fantastic patio with built-in firepit. Picture game-day or holiday gatherings enjoying both the indoor and outdoor spaces. In addition, the lower level offers two more bedrooms with great natural light and a full bath. But we're not finished yet! Do you need hobby or workshop space or a spot for some of those large toys with engines? There's a large workshop with a built-in counter and sink on the lower level plus an oversized two-car attached garage. Both benefit from a handy built-in air compressor. Plus a 30' x 20' outbuilding/garage with 10-foot high overhead doors provides extra work and storage space. All that plus a coveted location with easy access to I-83, the NCR bike trail, the Gunpowder River, local breweries and wineries, and the highly rated Hereford School District.
