The Home
As you step inside, you'll be immediately struck by the stunning red library wall—a true wow factor that sets the tone for the rest of the home. The grand historic farmhouse ambiance is accentuated by a spacious front room with soaring ceilings. A large sofa by the fireplace beckons you to unwind, whether you're connecting with loved ones or enjoying a friendly game night. A second sofa faces the sliding glass doors, offering a serene view of the pond and property gardens.
The kitchen is a chef's delight, fully equipped with everything you need to create memorable meals, while the indoor dining area comfortably seats eight. French doors lead out to the outdoor terrace, where you can dine al fresco and soak in the beauty of the surrounding nature.
After a day of exploring, two restful retreats await. Hidden behind a door in the library wall, the first bedroom reveals a plush queen bed. A second bedroom offers another queen bed, accommodating up to 4 guests with two full bathrooms for convenience and comfort.
Outside, the estate unfolds into a serene landscape of meadows, woodlands, and gardens. A tranquil pond adds to the property’s charm, offering a perfect backdrop for leisurely strolls and moments of quiet reflection. The Red House at The Library Retreat is a place where relaxation and connection with nature come naturally, making it the perfect escape from the everyday.
