Nestled at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, a mature tree-lined driveway welcomes you to this private 3-acre estate, where panoramic Appalachian Mountain views, bordering farmland, and park-like grounds create an ever-changing backdrop of natural beauty. Here, you'll enjoy the tranquility of country living with Carlisle Pike, Wegmans, restaurants, shopping, schools, and I-81 all just minutes away. This thoughtfully designed home provides the perfect setting for everyday life, entertaining, and relaxation. At the heart of the home, the spacious kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, breakfast bar, and a large picture window that fills the kitchen with natural light while framing panoramic Blue Ridge Mountain views. The breakfast bar overlooks a sunken family room, where a gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting focal point. Just off the family room, an oversized recreation room offers flexible space for a home theater, game room, or gatherings. Adjacent to the family room, a bright sunroom extends the home's living space outdoors, opening to a beautifully crafted paver patio accented with coach lighting. The upper level features four bedrooms, including the private primary suite with its own sitting room, fireplace, sweeping mountain views, and an adjoining flex room ideal as a nursery or home office. A finished walkout basement offers private guest quarters with a fifth bedroom, full bathroom, and kitchenette. An attached 30' × 30' garage and a heated, air-conditioned 30' × 30' workshop provide exceptional space for hobbies, collectors, or a home-based business. Outside, beautifully landscaped grounds, established rose gardens, a diverse collection of mature trees, and abundant wildlife create a peaceful private retreat to enjoy from the covered front porch or expansive rear deck. Recent improvements include a new well, central air conditioning, an on-demand gas water heater, a 500-gallon propane tank, and private septic. Properties offering this captivating combination of panoramic mountain views, generous acreage, flexible living spaces, and everyday convenience are a rare find.
