Enchanted by the idea of an unplugged country lifestyle? Imagine taking the time to read a book in its entirety every week; time to bake bread from scratch or time to take the family on a picnic alongside the pond and explore your property. With a 15+ acre private sanctuary, there's plenty of room for all your favorite outdoor activities, including picking apples from your trees, planting an organic garden, hiking, cross country skiing, and snowmobiling. The great thing about this property...you're just 5-minutes from Holland Patent shopping, restaurants, and their highly-rated school district; 20-minutes to Utica, and 16-minutes to Griffiss Business & Technology Park. Built in 1990, this one-owner home has been meticulously renovated with upgrades that will make you think you're looking at a newly constructed home, including replacement windows. During the last six months, substantial enhancements have been undertaken including: updated baths, new carpeting, updated lighting, refinished hardwoods throughout, interior and exterior repainted, kitchen remodeled with new granite counter tops and new appliances including a wine cooler, new landscaping and a new paved driveway. The home also has an extremely durable, no-maintenance copper roof. Usually seen in the luxury home market, a copper roof's durability is unsurpassed and can last for 50 to 100 years before needing to be repaired or replaced. Step inside this gorgeous 4 bedroom, 2-1/2 bath, 3,151 sq. ft. custom Cape Cod and expect to be impressed. It's country living reimagined with a warm modern aesthetic that incorporates subtle color palettes, and clean and simple lines. The living room to the left of the entryway is a light and airy space with its gleaming hardwood floors, oak-paneled half walls, built-in curio cabinet and beautiful bay window with picturesque views of the front of the property. To the right of the entryway is a beautiful dining room that is designed for modern lifestyles and easy entertaining. It's the kind of space where guests love to linger over dinner, a room that is equally suited for a casual birthday party or a festive holiday celebration. Its hardwood floors, 8-light chandelier, and large window make it the perfect backdrop for any occasion. As you can see, this is a unique and distinctive country home with 15-acres of private land to explore and close proximity to schools, Utica and Rome. Isn't this the kind of lifestyle change you've been looking for.
