Spectacular home in the Irish Hills! This is a one-of-a-kind property and opportunity that rarely comes around! Nestled on 12+ wooded acres with walking trails cut through the property great for hikes and hunting! Property has 2 ponds; one large pond (5 acres) is stocked and has its own dock, the other sits in front of the main residence with a fountain. The home is an A-Frame construction with soaring vaulted ceilings and knotty pine finishes. The kitchen is updated with stainless steel appliances, brand new double convection oven, large island with leathered granite counters and gas cooktop. There is a first-floor primary bedroom with updated bathroom featuring a large walk-in shower with ceramic tile flooring and surround and soaking tub. The home also features first-floor laundry off the kitchen. The living area has spectacular views of the pond and the surrounding landscape with vaulted ceilings, a gas insert fireplace and woodstove next to the eating area, giving it an up-north flavor! You can take your coffee out to the large deck that overlooks the pond and incredible landscape as well. The second level has a large bedroom, full bath, and plenty of storage space. There is also a circular stairway that leads to a 3rd level loft. Great for a variety of uses, including an office or additional bedroom. The main house is equipped with a whole house generator, so you won't miss a beat! The pool house is incredible with a heated pool, full kitchen with Brazilian granite counters and stain-less steel appliances, as well as the 4th bedroom. All the flooring in the pool house is stamped concrete that is radiant heated! It also features a full bath and exercise area, as well as a room that could be another bedroom.

There is also an 8-person hot tub and electric operated cover on the heated pool. There are two pole barns on the property, one has a concrete floor and loft area, big enough to accommodate 4 cars the other is 30x40 and is a great place to store your toys!
