WELCOME HOME TO A SPECIAL PLACE WHERE MEMORIES ARE MADE! RELAXING RETREAT ON 5 ACRES WITH A SPECTACULAR, ONE-OF-A-KIND CUSTOM HOME. A contemporary rancher with more than 2,500 square feet, 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths. Near Winchester and commuter convenient to Rt. 7 and I-81 - but so restful and inviting that you'll never want to leave! You can even bring the critters - horses, cows, sheep and chickens are allowed! All on one level. Unique, one-owner home that a builder lovingly crafted for his family. Spectacular stone front. Beautiful grounds with a landscaped front lawn and woods in the back. Sweeping circular driveway and a tarmac that could accommodate a 25x40 garage. The back yard offers a firepit area with benches; a colorful playhouse with a loft, electricity and insulation; and a playset with swings, sandbox and a slide. A meandering path through the woods leads to a camping spot with a seasonal stream. Spacious rooms throughout with hardwood, tile and luxury plan vinyl floors. Elegant entry foyer with tile floor, crown molding, chair rail and shadow box. Hallway with curved wall and framed areas for hanging photos. Great room with a 12-foot cathedral ceiling, dramatic stone fireplace with a hearth and mantle, and built-in cabinets with counter space for books and displaying artwork. A bay window with a space for plants. Beautiful family room with wood paneling, 10-foot ceiling, stone wall, Scandinavian wood stove, TV nook and built-in counters for computers could double as an office/library. There's a window seat and hooks for coats and jackets in the nearby hall. The roomy kitchen is bright and cheerful with skylights, pendant lights and a 5-foot garden window over the double sink. Cozy dining area. Stainless steel appliances. Shaker-style natural hickory cabinets, including some with glass fronts for displaying dishes and glassware. Sliding doors off the great room and kitchen lead to a 16x48 deck that overlooks the woods. The primary bedroom suite has two walk-in closets, a built-in queen-size bed and an elegant primary bath with tiled walls, oval window, double-sink vanity and walk-in shower with two shower heads. Separate laundry room with shelves. Attached storage room plus two large sheds with electricity. Raised garden beds. The house is served by a 2-zone heat pump and a 3-bedroom, gravity-flow conventional septic. The community offers access to Opequon Creek for swimming and kayaking.
