It's your own personal forest and a river runs  right through it.  At the entrance you will be welcomed by some of the oldest oak trees in the county.  You soon begin to realize that you are entering another world; a world of beauty, soothing sounds and natural wonders.  

Winding up the hill on the packed-asphalt drive, you pass the trout pond.  You sense the solitude as deer, heron, rabbits and squirrels sip the cool fresh water.  The pond is fed by both an artesian spring and a fast-flowing brook.  The rainbows and goldens rise; sometimes they even jump.

Located in the Rochester school district, the house was custom-designed by a professional architect for maximum comfort, forest view and energy efficiency.  It was custom-built in 1987.  It offers peace and privacy, without isolation.  Restricted wooded properties on both sides provide total privacy, but nearby neighbors at the entrance.  A few miles down the road or trail is the town of Rochester, a Money Magazine "Best Place to Live."  

Whatever the season, there is a reason. . . to love it.

The house is a mix of traditional brick and cedar siding stained with an opaque shade to compliment the natural setting. 

 

The spacious 4.5-car garage with high-ceiling, walkable attic gives you plenty of room to store your mountain bike, boat and sports car.  We keep our canoe outside.
