Super easy to clean and quite scratch resistant,
the floors are a lovely warm hickory finish.

and views of the gardens.

Master Bedroom



 The spacious bedroom has quality laminate floors in
a "hand scraped", hickory finish.  
The walls are freshly painted
a rich, slate gray and the trim is a crisp white.




The bedroom's abundant square footage allows for
various uses.  Above, the current owners 
have created a seating area to enjoy the Sunday paper,
a cup of coffee, and the soothing songs of
the woodland birds.




 Looking out the master bedroom's door is the 
well lit second floor hallway with gray walls
and crisp, white matchstick bead board.




 His and her closets provide fantastic storage.
The closet doors are painted a classy black with
brushed nickel silver hardware.




  The saltbox's slanted roof and the master bedroom's nook area
provides an intimate setting for the bed and sound sleep.




The master bedroom is a wonderful retreat from day to day activity.

Garden and Exterior



A pea stone path runs along the garage's southside to the breezeway entry.
Currently, the garden above is home to seasonal vegetables including
cucumbers and plum tomatoes.
The garden is bookended with mature irises and day lilies on
one side and perennial and annual herbs on the other.




Constructed in 2011, a versatile patio accents the formal south facing entrance.
The pea stone path ends here.
Edged in recycled brick, gardens featuring lavender and stachys 
surround the patio's sides.




A pea stone "patio" connects the path to the formal entrance.
The porch/ breezeway offer a place to sit out of the elements
to enjoy the views of the thriving gardens.




 View from the driveway along the pea stone path and garden.
There is plenty of lawn for fun and games.





The Hill Garden is home to various varieties of hosta, lady's mantle,
a mature climbing hydrangea, edible rhubarb, and thyme.




To take advantage of the summer sunlight, a fenced raised bed
garden was installed in 2011.  Eight 4' x 8' beds filled with organic compost
produce vigorous vegetables through the summer.

The fenced garden could also be home to a cutting garden or even a 
collector's garden.




Care has been taken to utilize rocks from the surrounding woods to accent
and edge the path and garden.




 A stand of pines flank the long driveway.
Privacy abounds as the house is tucked in the woods.
Located at the end of a dead end road, traffic is minimal.

Peaceful and private are the perfect words to 
describe this property.
