A rare find—this pristine intimate home on a private, south-facing 5-acre lot is absolutely move-in ready. Set back on a long driveway, the land has remained largely untouched for over 30 years, offering peace and privacy beneath a mature forest canopy. Built in 1994 by a respected island builder, the home showcases outstanding craftsmanship, with custom fir floors, handcrafted cabinetry, and wood-trimmed windows reflecting the owner’s expert woodworking. A garden, small workshop, and dry storage buildings complete the property. An 8.5 GPM drilled well ensures reliable water, and zoning allows for an additional principal residence. This home and property are an absolute joy to experience. Schedule a viewing—you won’t be disappointed.
