Nestled on an expansive 11-acre estate in the Colyer Lake community, this stunning property features a grand 8,000-square-foot main residence complemented by a 1,800-square-foot caretaker's home. The grounds include a newer barn with accommodations for four horses, four fenced-in pastures, a stocked trout stream, a beautiful pond that is filled with bass, catfish and other species (a great ice skating rink in the winter!), a mini barn and storage sheds. The main house dates back to the late 1800's, with several additions and updates making it a blend of historic charm and contemporary luxury. When you step on the property you'll notice the owners have poured a lot of care into the maintenance of the home and were thoughtful with the updates. The original wood plank floors shine throughout the original half of the home and reclaimed wood harvested from the attic of the caretaker's home completes the flooring throughout the addition. The heart of the home, a chef's kitchen, boasts state of the art appliances, custom cherry cabinetry, a large center island and a walk-in pantry. Adjacent is the elegant dining room, ideal for hosting intimate dinners. Also on the first floor is a formal sitting room, a family room with a wood burning fireplace and French doors, and a living room with breathtaking views of the pond, mountains and pastures. The owner's suite is bathed in natural light and features tray ceilings, a spacious bathroom with custom tile work, a large walk-in closet, and an attached private office, providing both comfort and convenience in one luxurious space. There is an additional ensuite on the second floor with a cathedral ceiling, ample closet space, and a gas burning fireplace. Two more large bedrooms, an additional full bathroom and laundry room, both with heated tile floors, complete the second floor. There is a finished attic with space for guests, or hobbies. The finished basement includes a recreational room, an additional living space, a kitchenette, a full bathroom and full walkout access to the beautiful in-ground pool. The pool is surrounded by professional landscaping and hardscaping making it the perfect spot for summer relaxation. The estate also features a heated, three-car, detached garage with adjoining workshop and loft storage along with an additional detached, two-car garage with workshop to complement the caretaker home. Adding to its charm, the estate holds a rich history, highlighted by a historic bridge original of SR 322 dating back to 1904. This property is a rare gem, offering a unique blend of luxury, nature and history.
