Description
This stunning home is the former residence of the nation's first poet laureate Robert Penn Warren. Mr. Warren built the stone foundation of the barn where he wrote his poetry. This legacy stone foundation became the design point from where a thoughtful custom designed 5+ bedroom home with amazing extras such as a large lux one bedroom apartment, and a six car heated garage with bath has been created. These are just some of the unique features. Spacious, open floor plan, gourmet eat-in kitchen, custom millwork and superior craftsmanship, lower level entertainment suite, wrap around terraces, and dining decks, and lovely outdoor alcoves and sweeping lawn and Pro Tennis Court. This home has everything a discerning buyer wants. It is a private oasis for weekenders or as a primary home. Feel like you are on vacation every day! Mr. Warren, the only writer to have won Pulitzers for both fiction and poetry was known to walk the trails within the property's three acres. A local well regarded luxury home builder also fell in love with the sweeping property and chose to build this home here for himself. No expense was spared, and top finishes and the utmost attention to detail and quality was used in every construction decision and design choice made. There are exquisite exterior spaces that were designed to maximize and enhance the natural landscape as well as blend seamlessly with the interior spaces. Come experience it for yourself.
