This delightful, light filled custom home was built in Ivy in 2003 and then significantly enhanced by current owner. The contemporary farmhouse is 6,250 finished square feet with 5 beds and 6.5 baths and was designed to maximize natural light and prevailing breezes. A remarkable open main floor incorporates a great room with heart pine flooring and stone fireplace, a family room with stone fireplace and an adjacent gourmet kitchen, a home office, a den (or 6th bedroom) with full bath, a mudroom with half bath, and a covered deck with exterior stone fireplace, access to outdoor shower, and private stairs to a guest apartment above a two-car garage. The second level includes a primary bedroom suite with walk-in closet, three additional bedrooms and two baths, and a laundry room. A remodeled lower level showcases a game room with wet bar, hardwood tray ceiling, built-ins, and full bath, as well as an exercise room, and a family room with hardwood tray ceiling and stone fireplace. Outdoor porches and hardwood decks provide a natural, secluded escape on two landscaped acres in coveted western Albemarle less than 10 minutes from Charlottesville.
