Tucked quietly along Hottel Springs Road, this home rises from the trees with a kind of grounded confidence-substantial, inviting, and beautifully unexpected. A long covered porch welcomes you inside, and the moment the front door opens into the foyer, the tone is set: this is not just a home with space... it's a home with presence. The original heart of the home unfolds first, warm and thoughtfully designed. The main kitchen stands out immediately-rich dark grey cabinetry, deep granite countertops, and stainless appliances that give the space a modern, moody sophistication. It's the kind of kitchen that feels both polished and lived-in, where morning routines settle naturally and evenings gather without effort. Beyond it, the cozy living room rests beneath soft natural light, anchored by a stone hearth and wood stove that radiates comfort through the colder months. A dedicated office lines one wing, complete with custom built-ins that make work, study, or creative projects feel purposeful. A separate library sits tucked away-floor-to-ceiling shelving, warm tones, and the quiet charm of a room made for thinking, reading, or escaping. Throughout this part of the home, the craftsmanship is unmistakable. Storage appears where you need it, room transitions feel intentional, and every hallway guides you to another space that seems designed for someone's next chapter. Then, through a subtle transition that feels seamless rather than new, the home opens into its most breathtaking space: the 2015 addition. The moment you step inside, the ceiling lifts into a sweeping stretch of tongue-and-groove wood, glowing softly in the natural light. The room feels expansive and peaceful all at once-easily large enough for gatherings, celebrations, movie nights, or quiet mornings that stretch a little longer than planned. This addition includes a full second kitchen, finished in bright white cabinetry, stainless appliances, and a large granite island that centers the room. It's a contrast to the dark grey of the main home-fresh, open, and airy-giving the entire wing a sense of independence and possibility. Whether used for extended family, hosting long-term guests, a college kid home for the summer, or simply extra space for a busy household, this second living quarter is a luxury you can feel in the flow of the home. With over 5,500 square feet, five bedrooms, and three-and-a-half baths, the home manages to feel expansive without ever feeling overwhelming. Each room has its own character. Each space has a clear purpose. And together, the original home and the 2015 addition create a layout that supports multigenerational living, blended families, dual households, home-based work, or simply anyone who values space and connection without sacrificing privacy. Outside, the 2.23-acre property offers the same sense of quiet possibility. The koi pond catches the sunlight near the porch, adding movement and softness to the landscape. Mature trees frame the yard in every season, the land stretches open and usable, and a circle drive makes arriving feel effortless. The detached 40x30 shop stands ready for tools, woodworking, hobbies, side projects, equipment storage, or a small business setup. Evenings settle gently here. The porch lights glow. The land quiets. The home feels like it exhales. And for a moment, you can imagine what life could look like in a place built to hold every season-every gathering, every milestone, every quiet day in between. This is more than a large home. It's a place to grow into. A place that adapts with its people. A place where every chapter fits. Welcome to 17981 Hottel Springs Road. Your next story starts here.
