Don't miss this rare opportunity at a stunning 35-acre property offering unparalleled privacy in a peaceful wooded setting, just minutes from Rochester. Tucked into a cove of mature oaks on restored prairie, this 1-owner home was architecturally designed to organically blend into the environment with earthen bermed walls for added thermal efficiency. Stepping inside you'll be taken back by soaring vaulted ceilings, open spaces flooded with natural light, and walls of windows offering passive solar heating and tranquil views of the surrounding forest. The main floor primary suite boasts a quiet retreat with vaulted ceilings, its own deck, and spacious bathroom with soaking tub and double vanities. A main floor laundry/mudroom with minimal steps to entry offers a home you can live in for many years to come. Three decks, a screened in porch and walk-out to a lower level patio ensure easy access to the serene surroundings from many points in the home. Outdoor opportunities abound with a diverse and well balanced mix of landscapes including natural prairie, mature oak forests cleared of buckthorn, and walls of mature pines for added privacy. Habitat improvement has lead to abundant populations of deer, turkeys and other wildlife. Horse enthusiasts will appreciate expansive pasture with electric fencing, natural springs for watering, and horse barn for all your odds and ends. If you like to garden, you'll love the the mature fruit trees including apples, cherries, plums, pears, grape vines, raspberries, blackberries and blueberries! Recent updates include a new roof, fresh exterior paint, and a radon mitigation system. Solar panels provide for self-sufficient living and an opportunity to sell back to the grid. Too many features to list here, this home is an absolute must-see!
