Overview

Description

Nestled on 6.3 acres of pristine land surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty, this extraordinary estate offers a rare blend of privacy, craftsmanship, and history. A winding driveway welcomes you home, gradually revealing sweeping prairie views, a variety of thoughtfully preserved trees, and a charming backyard apple orchard — a setting that immediately evokes peace and serenity. Built by the esteemed Derrick Homes, the residence showcases exceptional quality and intentional design throughout. Rich wide-plank wood floors with a story of their own anchor the home. Complemented by beamed ceilings, crown molding, smooth ceilings, and custom millwork. The wainscoting was milled from wood sourced directly from the property, adding a deeply personal and timeless touch. Marvin Ultimate windows frame picturesque views from every angle, while custom built-in cabinetry, four-panel doors, and wide casing and trim reflect enduring craftsmanship. The main level features a spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances, multiple pantries, and an oversized island complete with built-in cookbook shelving. The dinette is surrounded by expansive windows that flood the space with natural light. Just beyond, one of two inviting screen porches finished with brick paver flooring offers the perfect place to unwind and take in the landscape. The main-floor primary suite is both elegant and comfortable, offering transom windows, crown molding, a custom built-in closet, and proximity to one of the home’s most remarkable spaces — a private office unlike any other. This dramatic vaulted office features a warm wood ceiling, walls of built-in bookcases, and an upper-level library wrapped in rich shelving. The true architectural jewel is the “Crow’s Nest,” accessed by a custom wood ladder, where panoramic views of the property and evening sky create an unforgettable retreat for reflection or stargazing. Upstairs, two charming bedrooms feature architectural vaults, built-in window benches, and thoughtful details throughout. A generous bonus room with a wood-burning stove offers flexible living space, ideal as a bedroom, studio, or gathering room, along with a full bath on this level. The lower level provides expansive open living space perfect for entertaining, along with an additional bedroom, ¾ bath, and substantial storage. A sizeable laundry and mudroom offers exceptional function with a built-in folding counter and adjacent walk-in pantry. Additional highlights include a roof replaced in 2023 and copper gutters. The heated and air-conditioned outbuilding is a true workshop enthusiast’s dream, complete with built-in wood bench, extensive shelving, designated machine areas, and a vaulted storage loft that houses additional lumber — continuing the legacy of craftsmanship found throughout the property. Meticulously maintained and deeply rooted in thoughtful design, this is a once-in-a-lifetime estate where history, quality, and pride of ownership converge. A rare opportunity to own a property that is as meaningful as it is beautiful.
