Contemporary

Don't miss the videos! If contemporary, private, acreage, nature, detail, natural light, clean line, gourmet kitchen, flowing space and main-level living are words and descriptions that pop up when you dream about a new home, this must be the home that comes to your mind. Impeccably designed and built, this one-of-a-kind retreat designed by Acorn Deck House Company seems to exemplify their brand perfectly: “The Acorn Deck House Company designs and crafts one-of-a-kind custom homes in modern, contemporary, and traditional styles, often a mix of all three.” This home is just that mash up, one that the photos will help you envision, but that you will really feel when you walk through it. This home is a masterclass in contemporary living in a rural/forested community. Minutes from "downtown" Clifton, this house sits on nearly 7 forested acres, adjacent to Popes Head Creek and Hemlock Overlook Regional Park. The details of this property are endless; notice how the soaring ceilings, exposed beams, skylights, wood casework, hardwood flooring, fireplace-stone-surround and walls of windows blur the lines between inside and out. While the home is contemporary, the spaces are warm and inviting. The perfectly designed main level features: * a gourmet kitchen with Wolf appliances, a kitchen island, double ovens, a gas cooktop, anchored by a flex space (currently a casual eating area) with a wall of floor-to-ceiling forest-facing windows * a formal-ish dining room that is the glue between the kitchen and the living room. Framed by windows, built-in shelves and a soaring ceiling, this room is the perfect entertainment bridge between the kitchen and living room * a living room that feels airy, yet grounded simultaneously, thanks to the wall of windows, the vaulted ceiling, the wood-burning fireplace and the cozy window seat and built-in shelves between it and the foyer * a private Primary Suite with stunning forest views, vaulted ceilings, deck access, and a spa-like bath * a second main-level bedroom, currently used as a home office, with two walls of windows * a hallway full bath * a large mud room / laundry room off of the garage and side patio * The upstairs is a carve out for two bedrooms (one with its own playroom/office/yoga room attached), a hall with its own "niche" for an inviting space to enjoy reading or playing guitar or ? * another full bath rounds out this level * And then there’s the sprawling lower level, a space limited only by your imagination! * two oversized rec rooms, currently a game room (the pool table conveys) with access to the patio and a TV/guest room * the fifth bedroom and the fourth full bath * 900+ square feet that is currently a home gym, but is a blank slate for future buildout or …? * Ready for fresh air? The exceptional forest oasis awaits, and there are so many places to enjoy the outdoors * on a vast Cumaru (Brazilian teak) wrap-around hardwood deck * on a large patio space protected from the elements by the deck above * around the fire pit extraordinaire ensconced in the forest *on the multitude of trails cleared throughout the acres of forest for motorcycles, mountain bikes, walks (or a horseback ride?) * on the lush lawn for yard games. * Updates to the house since 2021 include painting the upstairs bedrooms and replacing the carpet/upgraded padding upstairs (2025), Wolf kitchen appliances, a 75-gallon hot water tank, resurfacing the driveway (2024), clearing and creating the fire pit area and creating trails. * Other highlights of this home include that this house is surrounded by an HOA, but it is not part of it. * The septic drain field has room for expansion, should you want to add an out-building. * It is @20 minutes to the Burke VRE and @30 minutes to the Franconia-Springfield Metro. * A rent back through late June is preferred. This unique property is a rare find, you won't find another like it. Don't miss out on this architectural, yet welcoming, delight of a home! * exterior cameras
