Escape to your own private country retreat on 39 acres of mature woodland, just 10 minutes north of Havelock. A winding laneway leads through the forest to a picturesque clearing with landscaped grounds, established gardens, and a distinctive home surrounded by nature. A tranquil pond, trails and old apple orchard enhance the peaceful setting. Blending history with thoughtful craftsmanship, the residence combines a restored log home with a post-and-beam addition, creating warm, inviting living spaces full of character. The log home features a welcoming living room and dining room centered around a striking fieldstone fireplace with pellet insert, while the upper level offers two bedrooms and a 3-piece bath. The addition provides a spacious foyer, country kitchen with freestanding woodstove, 3-piece bath with laundry, and a sun-filled sunroom overlooking the backyard. A substantial fieldstone wall serves as both an impressive architectural feature and a natural thermal mass, helping regulate indoor temperatures year-round. Upstairs, the addition offers a spacious primary bedroom with sitting area and walk-in closet, a fourth bedroom, office nook, and a charming loft accessed by ladder. Off the kitchen, enjoy a cedar-lined electric sauna and a fully enclosed 15' x 20' porch for extended seasonal living. The backyard is designed for entertaining, featuring a 16' x 40' solar-heated inground pool with cedar decking, textured concrete, screened pergola, and stone patio. A detached 2.5-bay garage includes 9.5' ceilings, and a fully finished second level with ductless heating and cooling plus a private balcony - providing possible future opportunity for additional living quarters. Two ductless heat pumps, a pellet stove, freestanding woodstove, and heated floors in the kitchen and main bath provide year-round comfort. Offering exceptional privacy, timeless character, and a truly unforgettable setting, this is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind country property.
