A real one-of-kind property, this 4,000-square-foot contemporary home is set on almost two wooded acres with a serene pond and terraced gardens edged with stonewalls.

Located on a cul-de-sac close to Bishop’s Orchards and five minutes to the Guilford center, this property is truly breathtaking. Built in 1980, the home has been updated with great detail. The grand double-door, two-story entry leads to a living room with 24-foot shiplap ceilings and large windows which allow natural light to stream in nicely. The step-down family room with a wood-burning stove offers a cozy spot for reading and relaxing and leads to a wraparound deck.

Double French glass doors invite you to a large kitchen with Carrara marble island, a tiled backsplash, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, pantry, and storage. The formal dining room is perfect for entertaining. There is hardwood flooring throughout the first floor, and the main level also has a bedroom/office and a remodeled full bath and laundry.

A newly designed split staircase leads to three spacious bedrooms and two full baths. The large primary bedroom has a walk-in closet, a remodeled full bath, and a balcony with a peaceful, private setting overlooking a picturesque pond. In addition, the finished lower level provides 462 square feet for an exercise space and storage and walks out to a terraced backyard.

Come by and view this home at an open house on Saturday, July 6 and Sunday, July 7 from noon to 2 p.m.
