A beautiful winding paved drive through private lush woods takes you into an utterly serene 5 acre estate set back over 1000 ft from the road with views of two ponds and wooded land from every window in the home.

Landscaped gardens with gorgeous seasonal flowers throughout.
The home includes two bars, two kitchens (one full kitchen and a smaller side kitchen off the entertainment room and gallery), two living rooms, a 4K HDR Roku TV, four bedrooms (including a kids' room with twin sized toddler car bed), five bathrooms - two full and three half, a huge deck, a circular drive, five acres of wooded private land, a small playground for kids, a Slackline, hammock, Adirondack chairs, and so much more!
The kitchen is perfect for larger gatherings and dinner parties within a large and open space, it is situated with a peninsula stovetop and two in wall ovens. In addition to all stainless steel appliances and a dishwasher, we offer an air fryer, large microwave, rice cooker, blender, two sets of pots and pans, three sets of silverware, a large variety of mixing bowls, strainers and cooking tools. We invite you to use our condiments, assortment of teas and coffees, seasonal fruits, variety of snacks, candy and treats. We also offer a stocked pantry with a variety of soups, cereals, pasta, mixes and sauces should you forget something and need to use ours.
All bedrooms are private, comfortable, stylish, super quiet and well designed with ample light, very high ceilings and gorgeous views. Beds in the three adult bedrooms are elevated off the floor and are accompanied with head boards (see complete description for each bedroom to clearly see which bed and/or sofa combination is where); the King beds all have flat and firm mattresses, high quality, high thread count soft matching linens, and two sleeping pillows for every guest (additional blankets and pillows are also available); the sofas/couches are as pictured.
The master bathroom on the first floor has a bidet. The toilet seat is heated and has multiple options for front and rear streams via remote control. You can, of course, use the toilet as a regular toilet without the bidet functions (just don’t press any buttons).
Please do take your time looking through the specific descriptions for each room to avoid any confusion and/or disappointment. There are a total of 11 “beds" which include sofas and couches. A booking for 12 or more assumes that people will share the King sized beds.
Please note that while this space does allow for up to 14 guests (including children), the space does not offer 12 separate beds. If you have 12 people staying, this assumes that people will be sharing the king sized beds and, also, that some people will be sleeping on couches, etc. If you wish to bring your own inflatable mattresses, etc. to accommodate individual sleeping spaces, that is allowed, please just ask ahead of time. If your group is larger than 12, please contact me for approval to book.
There will be no extra fee for any guests beyond 14 because bedding and towels, etc. is not provided for those additional guests (it is, of course, provided for the initial 14 guests). However, if you inquire, additional guests may be approved, on a case by case basis, at no additional fee.
Guest access
You will be required to do the following three things to gain access to the home:
1) text the host a photo of your drivers license or government issued ID - the name must match the booking guest name
2) accept the resolution request for a $500 security deposit. This deposit is fully refundable at check out so long as none of the house rules are violated. If you violate a house rule (leave cigarettes on the lawn, smoke inside the home and leave an odor, bring additional guests that were not approved, bring a pet that was not approved, etc.), your deposit will not be refunded.
3) provide the names and ages of all guests, whether just daytime visitors or overnight guests, for prior approval. Your visitors must not exceed the reservation guest number.
Once you have access, you will have private access to the ENTIRE home and grounds. No one other than you will be on the property. We do not split this home into multiple rentals at the same time (as so many other listings do; be careful, read the detailed descriptions and/or ask).
Please note that the home is, as pictured, surrounded by woods. I mention the below for city dwellers that may be surprised by some of what nature may offer. You may be surprised to hear the sounds of birds, geese and/or other animals. Although not a regular occurrence, depending on the season and time of day, you may see wild turkey, deer, geese and/or other animals. These animals are beautiful and wild and free. Please leave them so.
The lawns (front and back) are mowed and maintained regularly. The long driveway is always maintained (and cleared of all snow in the winter).
The wooded areas are left as woods and you are welcome to hike those areas as well (there are cross country ski opportunities in the winter). Please be aware that the hiking paths, naturally, are not paved and will require closed shoes (in the winter, you would need to bring your cross country skies and/or snowshoes if you'd like to explore the surrounding land).
The two ponds are a very short walk (about 300 feet) through the woods or along a stone pathway that is not completely flat or even (there may be small twigs, branches, leaves, etc. along that walkway). While you can enjoy a limited view of the ponds from a distance, if you wish to walk to the ponds, you will need to walk through some trees in shoes appropriate for non-level surface walking (this is not a strenuous “hike” by any means but I do mention this for people who may have mobility limitations). Also, please be reminded that the ponds themselves are off limits and you are not allowed to swim in them (nor would you want to swim in an untreated pond). Further, the ponds are private neighboring property on which you should not litter. If you do go back there, please be quiet and please be respectful of the neighbors back there.
Other things to note
The guest count is very strict and must include any visitors that you plan on having over to the house.
We live in this home throughout the year (when it is not rented) and we do have our personal belongings in the home, including a variety of art from across the world. The items you see throughout the home are special to us. We share them with you but ask that you please respect the space, watch your children and your pets and take care not to damage any items. Please do clean up after yourselves at check out and take your garbage out to the bins (we will, of course, be responsible for all towels and linens and general, professional cleaning).
We have cameras at the entrances to the home for security. Please beware that there is live video feed to/from all entrance points.
