Escape to your private 23-acre sanctuary—where log-home comfort meets country freedom, just minutes from everything.
Step into this striking 2005 log home and feel the difference immediately. Spanning 2,500 square feet of warm, inviting space, this story-and-a-half design with loft and cathedral ceilings delivers open, airy living that still feels cozy and grounded. Three bedrooms and 2½ baths give the whole family room to spread out, while the partially finished basement adds flexible space for a media room, workshop, gym, or future expansion.
Outside, the land steals the show. Twenty-three private acres roll out before you: roughly five tillable acres ready for crops or pasture, about an acre of CRP ground generating steady income, and the rest in mature woods perfect for hiking, wildlife watching, or prime hunting. The crown jewel? A fully stocked 3-acre pond complete with dock—cast a line and pull in the big ones, or simply sit and watch the water ripple in the quiet. This is the kind of place where mornings start with coffee on the patio, evenings end in the outdoor hot tub under the stars, and every day feels like a getaway.
Practical comforts make the dream livable year-round. Geothermal heating and cooling keeps costs low and the home consistently comfortable. You have public water plus a well for outdoor use, an owned propane tank, a two-car attached garage, a security system, and major appliances (dishwasher, refrigerator, washer, and dryer) that stay. Country living doesn’t mean isolation—Route 185 is only five minutes away, putting shops, services, and daily needs within easy reach while you still enjoy total privacy and peace.
Whether you’re looking for the ultimate family homestead, a relaxing retreat, or smart investment potential (Airbnb, tillable land, CRP payments, or all of the above), this property checks every box. Big fish in the pond, big skies overhead, and big opportunities all around.
Motivated Seller! This is more than a house. It’s 23 acres of freedom, ready for its next chapter.

Welcome home to the kind of place that stops the scroll—and the heart.
Tucked on a full, peaceful acre among mature neighbors, this 2024 two-story beauty is more than a house. It’s the one you’ve been waiting for in the highly regarded Sullivan school district, close to everything you need yet far enough from the noise that evenings feel like a deep breath.
Step inside and the open-concept living room pulls you in with natural light pouring through energy-efficient windows and doors. A gas fireplace anchors the space beneath a custom Etchwood mantel, while Hunter ceiling fans keep the air moving in every room. The gourmet kitchen is pure showstopper: custom Amish cabinetry, quartz countertops and matching backsplash, black stainless steel appliances, and every detail dialed in for both beauty and function.
Upstairs (or down—the flow just works), four bedrooms and 2½ baths wait. The primary suite delivers a tiled walk-in shower with a seamless one-piece onyx pan, a deep soaker tub, and a laundry chute that drops straight to the laundry room—because who wants to carry baskets? Built-in custom closets and Hunter fans in every bedroom mean nothing was overlooked.
Outside, two fully covered porches invite morning coffee and evening conversations. A standing-seam metal accent roof meets traditional shingles for lasting curb appeal. Lorex security keeps watch. Outlets on every exterior corner stand ready for holiday lights. And the Carrier top-of-the-line heat-and-air system, energy-efficient windows and doors, and thoughtful details throughout mean comfort without compromise.
This home doesn’t just check boxes. It anticipates them—quiet acreage, exceptional schools, gourmet living, security, and those small, smart touches that make everyday life feel elevated.
Come see why this one is different. Some houses you look at. This one you feel.

Even better, a substantial 32 × 48 outbuilding (with an 18 × 48 lean-to) stood ready for bigger dreams. Built with a concrete footer, walls, and floor, the outbuilding was heated, insulated, and finished with a loft. Three garage doors—including two generous 10 × 12 doors—made it ideal for projects, equipment, or a true hobby-farm setup. A leased propane tank and generator hookups for both the home and shed added practical peace of mind.
The location is ideal: close to everything needed, yet peaceful, with good neighbors who valued the quiet. Endless possibilities stretched across those ten wooded acres—room to grow a garden, keep a few animals, explore the trails, or simply enjoy the stillness.
It wasn’t just a house. It was a place where kids could run free, where projects could take shape in the heated outbuilding, and where evenings by the wood fireplace felt like the best part of the day. Updates include Roof replaced 5 years ago, Flooring and interior paint updated, outbuilding built in 2013, lean to addition in 2024. In 1997, this property became someone’s happy beginning—and it still has that same promise waiting for the next family ready to make it their own. Turning your Real Estate Dreams into Reality!
