**OH for Sunday has been cancelled**Indulge in the ultimate luxury living experience, set amidst 8.86 acres of serene, wooded beauty in Bull Valley. This stunning custom-built country estate is a true masterpiece, crafted with meticulous attention to detail. A grand entrance is marked by 100-year-old oak doors adorned with intricate leaded and stained glass inserts and transoms, inviting you into a home where panoramic views and an abundance of natural light create an immediate sense of peace and serenity. The expansive foyer, featuring a striking floating oak staircase and elegant Portuguese tile flooring, stretches across the front of the residence and leads into the vast great room. Here, 20-foot beamed ceilings, a dramatic Rapunzel-inspired balustrade, a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace, custom leaded glass elements, and beautiful designer warm oak flooring all converge to create a welcoming atmosphere of warmth and comfort. The dining room, bathed in natural light and boasting more breathtaking views, is ideally located between the great room and kitchen, making it perfect for seamless entertaining. The kitchen, the heart of the home, offers an effortless flow and timeless appeal. Thoughtful updates preserve the home's original handcrafted charm, while high-end appliances ensure top-tier functionality. Vintage appliances add a touch of whimsy, complementing the solid wood cabinetry, granite countertops and backsplash, Portuguese tile flooring, and a large butcher-block island. Additional access to the main floor laundry, basement, and back patio deck completes the space. The main floor den, which could easily serve as a home office or additional bedroom, exudes comfort and coziness with its hardwood tongue-and-groove walls, a second inviting brick fireplace, herringbone flooring, and peaceful views of the surrounding acreage. The primary bedroom on the first floor is a luxurious retreat, offering a peaceful haven surrounded by nature. Its en-suite bathroom is equally impressive, featuring a soaking tub, bidet, expansive closets, heated floors, intricate fixtures, and a brand-new walk-in shower. Nooks and crannies throughout the home provide charming spaces to relax and appreciate the exquisite craftsmanship. On the second floor, two spacious bedrooms share a large bathroom. Both the landing and the bedrooms feature brand-new carpeting and fresh paint. An unfinished attic at the end of the right wing offers the potential for additional living space or serves as convenient storage. The walk-out basement spans the entire home and is partially finished, offering an incredible entertainment area that includes a 32' x 16' indoor pool, hot tub, and adjacent full bathroom. The grounds are equally impressive, with wooded canopies and open spaces perfect for relaxation. Thanks to the Conservation Stewardship exemption, the property's taxes will remain low. This rare, one-of-a-kind estate invites you to become a part of its storied history.
