This Is It... The One You've Been Waiting For. A place where you can build the life you've always dreamed of. Welcome to this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2 full & 2 half bath stone ranch on 8.48 picturesque acres with panoramic countryside and mountain views. Zoned for horses, cattle, goats, pigs, and chickens (weight limits apply), this property offers the perfect blend of country living and endless possibilities. Picture yourself gathering family and friends around the table after preparing your favorite meal in the spacious country kitchen with abundant cabinetry, as the impressive floor-to-ceiling double-sided stone fireplace fills both the kitchen and living room with warmth and character. Hardwood floors flow throughout the home, while a versatile bonus room is perfect for a home office, craft room, playroom, formal dining room or whatever suits your lifestyle. The primary bedroom includes a convenient half bath, while two additional bedrooms provide plenty of room for family or guests. A second full bath with a walk-in shower and laundry area is located just off the kitchen. Vintage enthusiasts will appreciate the beautifully preserved pink tile bath, a nostalgic nod to another era showcasing craftsmanship that's becoming increasingly rare. Two stone sunrooms with walls of windows flood the home with natural light and invite the outdoors in. The front sunroom welcomes you through sliding glass doors, while the rear sunroom opens through double glass doors to a concrete patio—the perfect place to relax, entertain, and enjoy mountain views and unforgettable sunsets. The finished lower level features another stone fireplace, a wet bar, an additional half bath, and flexible space for entertaining, hobbies, or a home gym. Direct access leads to the oversized 2-car garage, utility room, and generous storage. Outside you'll find an oversized 4-car detached garage, two storage sheds, and an additional outbuilding ideal as a picnic pavilion, potting shed, workshop, or extra storage. An automatic whole-house Generac generator provides added peace of mind during power outages. Pet owners will appreciate the convenient doggy door leading to a dog run and fenced in side yard. Established orchard and berry plantings include apple, peach, and nut trees, plus grapes, blueberries, goji berries, elderberries, and wineberries. A thoughtfully designed pollinator garden and flowering plants attract butterflies, bees, hummingbirds, songbirds, and other wildlife. Imagine ending your day beneath the shade of mature trees or relaxing in an Adirondack chair as the sun slips behind the mountains, painting the sky with unforgettable sunsets. Whether you're harvesting fresh fruit, tending gardens, spending time with family, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings, you'll discover where memories are made and dreams take root.
