Description:

Tired of the bright lights & big city? Do you crave the farm life in a horse community with the benefit of several small villages and the Tryon International Equestrian Center nearby? Then this location is perfect for you! With 17.40 +/- nearly level acres with 2 creeks, this farm is free of restrictions and ready for all of your horses. A 3 board fence has been installed along the front of the property along with an electric gate. The gate is wrought iron with a powder coated hammered copper finish which offers an on site key pad, remote controls for your vehicles and a solar panel for back-up power.

Set back off of Johnson Road, this home offers privacy. The details are so numerous because a professional builder made this his personal home. Every detail was considered and this place has that “WOW” factor that everyone is searching for! The best part is, this house is already updated and ready for you! The exterior doors have wrought iron detailing and are powder coated with a hammered copper finish. The interior ceilings have an R-30 insulation value. The exterior is a combination of brick, and both cedar lap siding and board and batten. It was completely remodeled and re-imagined in 2014 and includes a new heat pump, roof, interior solid wood doors, appliances, ceramic tile, hardwood flooring, plumbing, showers and tubs, lighting and electrical, exterior glass doors with wrought iron overlays, 3 car garage with a concrete driveway pad, screened-in porch, pool, cabana and storage building, front fencing and gate, and security system. The entire master bedroom wing is a new addition.

The 20’4 x 21’6″ living room is a bright spot that offers a wood tongue and groove ceiling, hardwood flooring, a brick fireplace with a wood stove insert, and a unique ceiling fan with a rotating set of double fans! The minute you walk in the door you will feel it. This is an ideal home, the kind we all long for. It feels warm, comfortable and very appealing. We have all heard of the saying, “Home, sweet home”. I believe this is a sweet home which offers a feeling of peace of mind and contentment.

The combination 20′ x 12’4″ dining area and kitchen is sure to make you smile! With a high tongue and groove ceiling, a hand-made wrought iron circular chandelier over the dining area plus hardwood flooring, this space offers access to the laundry room, the side entrance, and the screened-in porch. The kitchen is AMAZING! I absolutely love it! The granite countertops compliment the delicious combination of mint, vanilla, and chocolate colored glass tiles backsplash. The soft, minted colored upper cabinets are painted and contrast beautifully with the stained lower cabinets, all of which are custom built and crafted from solid wood. The copper farm sink with oil rubbed bronze fittings are a perfect addition to the entire space. The appliances are all stainless and include a dishwasher, a double door refrigerator, a trash compactor, a 40″ dual fuel stove with a 5 burner gas cook-top plus an electric oven, and a built-in microwave above. It is hard to imagine ever wanting to leave this warm and inviting room, but, then again, look out the kitchen window…the pool beckons!

The 7’7″ x 5’10” laundry room has a ceramic tile floor, a wine refrigerator, and custom stained built-in pantry cabinets.

The screened-in porch overlooks the pool and the acreage in the back and side yard. It offers a tongue and groove wood ceiling, a ceiling fan to keep you cool and a television hook-up in case you want to combine your game days with the great outdoors!

The 11’9″ x 10’10” office or 3rd bedroom is located just off of the living room. This space has hardwood flooring, custom sliding barn doors, a wood ceiling with a ceiling fan and windows overlooking the backyard.

The 11’8″ x 5′ guest bathroom doubles as a powder room. This bath offers crown molding, a ceramic tile floor, and a tub and shower combination with a ceramic tile surround. The handsome vanity is a converted sideboard with a sealed wood top. The fittings are oil rubbed bronze and the shower has a rain head showerhead.

The cheerful 12’4″ x 11′ guest bedroom has a high tongue and groove wood ceiling with a striking french blue paint that has been glazed to give it a warm aged appearance. This room also offers hardwood flooring, a ceiling fan and two nice sized windows.

The dramatic 17’10” x 13’8″ master bedroom has a high tongue and groove wood ceiling with a ceiling fan, hardwood flooring, and custom sliding barn doors that lead into the master bathroom.

The lovely 19’7″ x 8’1″ master bathroom has oil rubbed bronze fittings, a ceramic tile floor, a television hook-up, crown molding and a free standing clawfoot tub. The tub has an oil rubbed bronze handheld sprayer. The large double sink vanity has a granite countertop and a make-up area in between. The walk-in ceramic tile shower has a large rain showerhead installed in the ceiling plus a corner tile seat. The potty room is 7’2″ x 3′ and has a door for privacy. The expansive and custom 16’3″ x 7’2″ walk-in closet has a hardwood floor and beautiful dark stained shelving.

The 3 car 36′ x 26′ garage is accessed from the home via a covered breezeway with a tongue and groove ceiling. The garage offers attic storage.

The in-ground 28′ x 14′ pool was constructed in 2014, it comes with a cover and an automatic cleaner. BONUS – the concrete patio surrounding the pool was sealed with Cool Decking, which makes it cool to touch even on hot days! It has a 4′ walk-in area on each end, is 3′ deep on each end with a center depth of 5′. It is surrounded by lounging space for friends and family. What a fun backyard this would be! I can picture tables on the pool deck decorated for birthday parties, July the 4th and tons of future family get-togethers!

The 15′ x 9′ pool cabana will give you the authentic feel of a vacation hot spot! Complete with a shady place to sit, this bar has room for you to mix cold drinks, and for the grill master to serve up some surf and turf! You had better go to the party store and stock up on some cute little drink umbrellas, because soon it will be time to dust off the blender and crank up Jimmy Buffet! The cabana is attached to a 15′ x 12′ storage room and the 15′ x 9′ tractor carport.

Nothing takes the chill off of a cool Carolina night better than your own fire pit! Whether you are swaping stories about the glory days with you buddies or creating tasty smores with the kids, hanging out poolside is the place to be! A weekend at home is just the ticket for a renewed and rejevenated spirit!
