Tucked along the quiet curve of Cream Pot Road, this one of a kind post and beam retreat unfolds across more than 3,000 square feet of living space, yet every inch feels intentionally warm and deeply personal. Sunlight pours through floor to ceiling windows that frame three private acres, turning the open living and dining spaces-complete with custom builtins-into a sanctuary that shifts with the seasons. The main level primary suite feels like its own hideaway, with a vaulted ceiling, wood stove, full bath, sitting area, and a private deck where mornings begin in quiet conversation with the trees. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a flexible loft space-perfect as an office, library, or play area-offer room to grow. The partially finished basement adapts to any vision, whether a gym, studio, or gathering space, and the finished 23X25 room above the garage adds yet another layer of possibility. All of this sits just across from Chalker Brook and a short walk to the Mica Ledges Loop, while still only a mile from historic Main Street-a rare blend of retreat and connection, crafted for someone who wants a home that feels like a world of its own.
