The farmhouse style residence complements the majestic setting with 5,762 sq. ft. of living area luxuriously finished in a classic, comfortable manner. The spacious living room with a 19 vaulted ceiling features a Hearthstone wood burning stove enhanced by custom oak cabinets on either side while two double patio doors invite in the pastoral view. This space joins seamlessly with the gourmet kitchen where beauty abounds. Gorgeous African granite tops the quarter sawn oak cabinetry created by a local craftsman. Chefs will appreciate all the professional grade stainless appliances including a 6 burner Wolf range surrounded with ample work space. The large island seats four at the breakfast bar for intimate conversation or a quick meal, but when you host a dinner party the formal dining room is just a step away.

The amenity-rich master suite occupies the west end of the home. A large walk-in closet is easily organized due to the customized design by California Closets. French doors lead from the sitting area to the covered porch, and a spa quality bathroom waits ready for soaking away your cares in the air jet bath or relaxing in the double rain shower.

Two guest bedrooms and two full baths along with a laundry room and large pantry complete the main floor. The upper level accommodates a large family room, two more bedrooms, and a complementary half bath. A spacious loft area would make an ideal fitness or game room but offers great flexibility to meet your specific needs.

A couple well lit rooms on the lower level (one is currently an art studio) could be utilized for many different activities and both have walk-out access to the yard. The lower level is also home to an amazing commercial grade kitchen. This is fully equipped with chef grade stainless appliances, a deep double stainless sink, and a stainless prep table. Several freezers and long lengths of wire shelving units stand ready to store the finished products. The three bay garage tucks under the main level with two full sized bays and one smaller sized for a lawn mower or ATV. Outside, the vinyl board & batten siding, cedar doors, and limestone rock on the entire base of the home create a stunning and low maintenance package.

Several fine outbuildings are an added bonus as they provide the opportunity to keep livestock and store equipment. Approximately 25 acres of fenced pasture surrounds the main barn which would be ideal for cattle or horses but could easily be converted for other types of husbandry. Another 3+/- acre paddock with a spring comes complete with a loafing shed. The two bay equipment building is insulated with a heated shop and a bathroom. Other buildings include a storage building (which currently serves as a deluxe wood shed) and a chicken coop.

26+/- acres of hardwood forest cover the hillsides and provide a gorgeous frame for the valley meadows. This forest is home to a population of deer and turkeys and wildlife sightings are a regular occurrence.

While the residence is a splendid crowning jewel to the property, this is indeed a property where flavorful and nutritious foods are produced. Whether youre interested in stepping toward food independence, improving the nutritional value of your dining fare, or simply fulfilling your foodie cravings with high quality cuisine; this property provides an abundance of opportunity. The owners have conscientiously nurtured the land while making minimal impact on the natural habitat. These efforts in recent years produced grass-fed beef, eggs from heirloom hens, honey, cultivated raspberries, and a large variety of vegetable garden produce. The forest naturally yields morel mushrooms, hickory nuts, maple sap (for syrup making), black berries, & black raspberries. When the time comes to preserve this abundance, the commercial kitchen makes the task straightforward.

The owners of this estate maintain it with meticulous care making this offering a rare opportunity. Dont miss this chance to be the next steward of Hawks Cry Farm. Call today to schedule a private tour.
