Valley View is a captivating 5-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home that beautifully merges 19th-century charm with contemporary design concepts. Originally built in the 1800s, the original 2 bedroom cottage has been meticulously renovated to preserve its historic post and beam structure while adding a modern wing that enhances its natural beauty with bright, airy spaces. Set on 36.98 acres of idyllic countryside, Valley View offers expansive, panoramic pastoral views, a large serene pond, and mature trees that create a private and tranquil retreat.

Every inch bathed in natural light from a stunning glass window wall and fully retractable glass doors, offering uninterrupted views and seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living. The doors open directly onto the outdoor dining and covered lounge area, and the pool and deck beyond. Inside, a large sectional and wood-burning fireplace invite cozy moments, while a spacious dining table and fully equipped kitchen cater to your culinary needs.



Beyond the kitchen, the cottage which was originally used as a general store & post office, now houses a study filled with literary delights, a large sofa and a desk for remote work. A guest bedroom features a king bed, beautiful wood beams, natural wood floors, a sitting area, and doors that open directly onto the gardens, providing a separate entrance for guests. Upstairs, a lofted bedroom with a queen bed and full bathroom also showcases the home’s natural structure.
