Welcome to Apple Hill! Exquisite custom-built home situated in an old apple orchard on 7.44 acres. The long, private driveway opens to a spacious courtyard in front of what could look like a modest and unassuming first impression of this fabulous home. Who doesnt love a surprise? The oversized front porch welcomes you for a moment in shade, and maybe on a sunny day, you can relax with your latest read overlooking the lines of fragrant apple trees and the lazy wildlife around your pond. The owners built their dream home - sparing neither time nor money to realize their vision, painstakingly selecting the highest quality touches and finishes. Gleaming hardwood floors and curved staircase in the foyer set the stage when entering - the hardwood floors follow throughout most of the rooms downstairs in this home. There are 3 custom fireplaces designed for each room - the sun-filled formal living room, the large office/library, and the family room all have their own piece of warm, fireplace comfort. The open concept of the kitchen, breakfast area, and family room offer a grand flow for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen is truly the heart of most homes and so it is here. The wall of custom-built sleek wood cabinets disguises the many things that would normally clutter the counter. Large marble countertops rest atop white floor cabinets and drawers with interesting special features like a dog feeding/water drawer. This gorgeous space also features the highest quality Wolfe 6 burner gas stove, a custom stainless steel hood, and an oversized stainless steel sink. A professional chef would be ecstatic here. There is room for bar stools by the counter, a great spot to watch some new culinary creations being whipped up while enjoying some wine and cheese. 3 sets of French doors in the 2-story family room opens to the private backyard. An in-ground pool and a large deck offer a great flow for any summer party. A quiet dining room nestled next to the kitchen offers lots of natural light from the many windows with views of the woods and an occasional deer strolling by for a visit. There is also a spacious first-floor main bedroom suite with access to the deck. The suite features a large bathroom with hand-inlaid heated custom marble tiles, double sinks, soaking tub, and a roomy stall shower. A walk-in closet is also part of the suite. The main laundry room is conveniently located around the corner with an additional laundry downstairs. The upstairs offers 4 bedrooms - 2 bedrooms share a Jack and Jill bath the other bedroom has its own bath and walk-in closet. The additional room/flex space is currently being used as a guest bedroom and has a dry bar. This room has all the plumbing necessary for an additional bath nearby and its location by the back staircase would be a perfect Au Pair or Nanny apartment. It has limitless potential to be anything that you need it to be. The 8-seat home movie theater with surround sound concludes the upper floor. The full lower level is partially finished with outdoor daylight access. The finished area is currently set up as a pool house with an exercise room, kitchenette, and full bath. With little effort this space could easily be a guest apartment or teen suite with a kitchen area and living room. The brick pizza oven is just outside and only a few steps from the heated in-ground pool, which is surrounded by stone-covered patios and lounge areas, all backing to the woods offering quiet and privacy. Storage and a woodworking shop is also housed on the lower level. A detached 2-car garage with additional room upstairs is accessible by a regular staircase which offers more possibilities in addition to the attached two-car garage.
