Description

A private, appealing retreat set on 12+ wooded acres in Irish Hills, this extraordinary estate offers a rare blend of natural beauty, recreation, and resort-style living. With breathtaking frontage of a private five-acre stocked pond with your own dock, the experience begins when you arrive, where a picturesque 2nd pond with a fountain comes into view creating a memorable approach. The setting feels like a peaceful sanctuary designed to be enjoyed year-round. The thoughtfully designed A-frame Residence features a soaring ceiling and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the surrounding landscape & bring the outdoors in. The main living spaces are warm and inviting with pine wood paneling, anchored by a gas fireplace & expansive pond views. The Kitchen is designed for both everyday living & entertaining, featuring granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas cooktop, double convection ovens, island & a charming dining area with a wood-burning stove. The main-level Primary Suite is a true retreat. The newly remodeled en-suite has a new, spa like bathroom complete with soaking tub, large shower, beautiful dual vanity & a walk-in closet with custom built ins. The 2nd floor offers another bedroom & a full bath. The serene 3rd floor has space for an office, study or 3rd bedroom. One of the most remarkable features of the property is the luxurious Pool & Entertainment building. Designed for year-round enjoyment, this exceptional space features slate stone accent walls, a full kitchen with Brazilian granite & bar seating, workout space, and a deluxe eight-person hot tub. Designed for both entertaining & relaxation, the gunite Pool features a comfortable 4.6' depth that creates an inviting atmosphere for lounging, conversation & gatherings with family & friends. The pool house was further enhanced with new windows & sliding doors that walk out to the new deck which maximizes the lake views. The grounds are equally impressive. Enjoy quiet mornings overlooking the lake from the expansive deck, spend evenings gathered around the firepit, or explore the walking trails that wind through the wooded acreage. Additional features include 2 Pole Barns for vehicles, recreation equipment & workshop space. Both have solar electric and one has a cement floor with an electric sub panel. Two generators add peace of mind & the pool equipment is new in 2026. With its rare combination of privacy, thoughtful updates, and extraordinary recreational amenities, this remarkable sanctuary offers a lifestyle few properties can provide. No need to have a house up north or go on vacation!
