Some homes are defined by their interiors. Others by their setting. This property offers both, though it is the land that quietly sets it apart. Set beyond a private drive on over an acre, the home directly abuts the protected landscape of the Highwood Woods, offering lasting privacy, uninterrupted natural surroundings, and direct access to trails and open space. Fully reimagined, the home spans three finished levels with a practical, well considered layout. The main floor includes a chef’s kitchen, fireplaced den, formal dining room, and a comfortable family room opening to outdoor living and a large three season porch. A generous mudroom, ample storage, and an oversized three car garage with custom built ins support daily living. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a spa bath and private deck, with three additional bedrooms. Walkout lower level for fitness, media, or flexible use. A rare offering where setting, scale, and livability come together.
