Gather 'round, for a tale of a home unlike any other, a true storybook home nestled within its very own quiet and private nature preserve. Picture this: A magnificent residence crowned with a Jerkinhead slate composite roof, as if plucked from the pages of a beloved fairytale. Within its over 7000 square feet, discover a world of enchantment. Five bedrooms and five baths offer ample space for dreams to blossom. Step inside the foyer, where solid stone floors whisper stories of ages past. A grand living room awaits, warmed by the crackling embrace of a wood-burning fireplace – the heart of the home, and a vista of the outdoor greenery, beating with warmth and laughter. Imagine waking in your main floor primary suite, a gas burning fireplace casting a gentle glow as you gaze upon private views, a scene painted just for you. The completely renovated kitchen with natural quartzite stone countertops is a chef's delight, ready to conjure up culinary masterpieces. Attractively grained hardwood floors guide you through the dedicated office, perfect for crafting your own stories, and the lower-level exercise studio with a bath and boutique closet, a space for rejuvenation and self-discovery. Ascend to the upper-level loft, a cozy haven for reading and contemplation. A breakfast nook, warmed by yet another fireplace, beckons you to start your day with joy. A three-season porch invites you to embrace the changing seasons, while a composite deck and outdoor wood-burning-fireplace with gas starter offer al fresco delights under the starry sky. This story unfolds upon 7.14 acres, with over 430 linear feet of shoreline along the serene south fork of the Zumbro River and nature refuge. Let your furry friends run free knowing there is an invisible fence to keep them within the boundaries. Designed to ensure something is in bloom throughout the growing season, English Gardens welcome your guests bursting with color and life, while out back a charming potting house is where green thumbs flourish. An additional garden shed holds all your large and small tools. Winding manicured walking paths with the sound of murmuring water of the river in the foreground bring you closer to nature. Indulge in the spa, complete with an outdoor shower, a private emulated spring for relaxation in the peace and quietness. The 3-stall garage, boasting 220V service for future EV charger, a testament to the environmentally friendly. This is more than a house; it's a story waiting to be lived. Come, write your next chapter within these enchanted walls. Only a six-mile drive on all paved roads to the Mayo Clinic campus in downtown Rochester, and just minutes away from shopping, dining, and leisure.
