The owner's change of plans is your opportunity. Exceptional premium south east location offers views of the pond and unobstructed views of the orchard, a beautiful vista. The unassuming cottage style exterior does not hint at what is in store, a sophisticated yet comfortable and inviting interior, calm, quiet elegance. A number of luxury finishes and features include: 9' 1st floor ceilings; hardwood flooring throughout the main level, carpeting in the bedrooms and tile baths; granite countertops and custom Amish-made maple cabinets in the kitchen and all baths. A Viking appliance package includes an amazing 8 burner cook top! Kohler bathroom fixtures and tubs. Fond du lac cobble field stone fireplace wall flanked with custom cabinetry offering open display shelves and convenient closed storage. An upgrade not to be missed, the sun room, adds another wall of windows and additional transitional space. Two main floor bedroom suites, one a perfect home office, and two bedrooms in the lower level. The lower level has endless possibilities, you will find space for a pool or ping pong table, a future wine tasting room and cellar, a home theatre or a personal home gym. Side load three car garage. On more than a third of an acre, the back yard space is your blank canvas. Add a deck, or patio, a pool, hot tub, or fence, with a few requirements, all are allowed. I wonder what Howard and David would say, Howard Van Doren Shaw and David Adler that is, about this new Westleigh Farms community. The grounds, the architecture and the vast open land? I think they would give their nod of approval. Stop by, walk the grounds, explore. I have been a real estate broker since the late 1970's and have been in thousands of homes. Liked many, could have lived in a few, this is the first home that both my husband and I said, "should We move here"! I was raving about Orchard every time I came home. My husband decided he should visit my open to see what I was talking about. The views from every window are so peaceful, the floor plan is so versatile, and although an open floor plan still has a quiet elegance that is just my style.
