Description
Calling all Homebodies! Rustic elegance defines this home- cozy yet chic w/ a casual upscale vibe. Feel like a MILLIONAIRE, surrounded by 10+ ACRES of woodlands along THE MAZON RIVER w/ a home curated for entertaining family & friends while being "the special place" you've carved out as your own beautiful and peaceful sanctuary. TUCKED AWAY from the road between farmland and woodland offering a secluded stress free living experience where nature is your neighbor. As you follow the driveway back to the home, you pass an old Oak & Hickory Grove perfect for picnics, bonfires and lazy days on the hammock. As you pull up to the home, a meandering paver walkway invites you to the front entrance and the restful art sculpture in front encourages you to take your time, listen to the birds and take a deep breath. Coming inside the home you are met with a MASSIVE WOW FACTOR that never gets old & will make you proud every time. CATHEDRAL CEILINGS, a floor to ceiling real wood FIREPLACE & the impactful view of the trees define the GREAT ROOM that is the perfect place for gathering. Home chefs wouldn't have it any other way with the openness that defines the saying, "good food, good friends, good times". The flow between the different spaces within the larger Great Room area makes both big parties and simple game nights a memorable experience. There are two maintenance free TREX DECKS. The COVERED BACK DECK is a favorite place to unwind, birdwatch and count your blessings even while the rain is falling or retreat to the EXPANSIVE SIDE DECK for weekend dinners on Autumn evenings surrounded by mounds of hydrangeas, a stunning red maple tree, plenty of gold leafed hickory and pine trees. The kitchen is the hub of this main space with all professional grade VIKING APPLIANCES, loads of cabinet space for all your favorite cooking utensils plus the WALK-IN PANTRY is simply a dream affording you the luxury of organizing all your specialty equipment & your secret stash of chocolate. As an extension of the kitchen is The Oven Room, housing a built-in ITALIAN STYLE WOOD FIRED OVEN that is the highlight of the Winter and Fall Seasons. Wood fired old world pizzas are one of many possibilities along with the ambiance of the oven itself is truly a special quality of this home that accentuates its' inherent personality of being a cozy retreat for homebodies. Just off The Great Room is an expansive 400 sq ft+ LIVING ROOM with SOARING CEILINGS and beautiful views of the woodlands. This room is drenched in possibilities to accommodate the power of play for you & your friends, a music room for jam sessions, a playroom, or simply another gathering space. There are THREE BEDROOMS ON THE MAIN LEVEL that invoke a restful & cozy nights sleep. The master bedroom has a large bathroom, walk in closet and laundry en suite. The master bath is finished in SLATE AND STONE TILE, whirlpool tub, and marble. The second full bath is also finished in slate with a rain shower fixture, soaking tub & a nature inspired vessel sink. The lower level features RADIANT-HEATED EPOXY FLOORS that shimmer with natural light by day and glow under ambient lighting at night - ideal for movie marathons, record listening, or fireside reading. A large FOURTH BEDROOM currently serves as a Wellness Room with an infrared sauna (available separately). A gorgeous bathroom with a walk-in CERAMIC TILE SHOWER and custom vanity completes this level. The lower level FRENCH DOORS open to a paver patio perfect for your competition BBQ smoker always ready for your next summer party. The rain water harvesting system feeds a tranquil WATERFALL as you sit among the native plantings that serve pollinators like hummingbirds, butterflies, and honey bees. Grab the tubes or kayaks and float the river or go fossil hunting and fishing while taking in the exceptional treasure and wild nature of The Mazon River. A stylish, cozy & well-loved home surrounded by nature awaits.

6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is a joke. If your child has adhd or any other disability they have no idea how to handle it and they label them a problem child. If you speak up they threaten you demean your child and you and they place all the blame on you. We are not the only family they have done this to. Both of our children have adhd and they aren't doing anything to help them. By law if a child has a learning/social disability they are entitled to a 504 plan. When we asked about this they offer up a points system for them behaving well or badly and totally ignor your request for a 504 plan. They say that have your children's best interest at heart but their actions say a totally different story. If you want your child to feel depressed, to feel like they are worthless, to feel like the whole staff is against them, then this is the perfect school for you. If you want your children to be happy, to learn, to feel a sense of belonging then you better buy a house in the Saratoga school district. If you want your child/children to grow academically and socially this is definitely not the school for your family.Parent Review1mo ago - Morris Community High School

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAdmin warned dozens of students about how they have to buy a pass or park across the street. Then they block off the fences so all of us how to walk through cars. Thank you Michelle Flanagan. To add to that, some of these younger teachers are so lazy and will do anything to make their day go by easierStudent Review1mo ago
