This one-of-a-kind eight-acre forested estate in rolling Bristol Fruit Hills, easily accessible to U.S. 20, has 600 feet on the waterfront of a large pond in a classified wildlife refuge less than two miles from Elcona Country Club. It includes a 50-year-old house with sturdy construction and custom details as well as an 8,000-square-foot old-and-new barn equipped for high-level hobbies and ready to be finished as a home or other use. The buildings, 42 feet above the pond and nearly 100 feet from the road, command spectacular nature views in all directions through woods cleared of underbrush, planted with myrtle, and crisscrossed with trails. The barn, started with a peg-and-beam 864-square-foot structure moved to the land and vastly expanded, has eight-inch insulated walls sheathed with old-style brick, cedar, and high-quality, low-maintenance composite boards, with zoned heated floors in the new section. The original section has three-phase electricity, a built-in air compressor, and a Cyclone sawdust collection system. The custom-built section done in 2022 has a large room with a 13-foot 3-inch ceiling, garage doors, and a ceiling hoist. That section includes a kitchen with a ceramic tile floor and high-end appliances; a dining area; a washer-dryer hookup; and two full baths. Upstairs is a grand landing with chandeliers, a nearly finished 2590 Sq Ft room with 10-foot 6-inch ceiling, a viewing balcony, and a full bath. The structure was designed with many accessibility features and space for installing an elevator. Electrical, plumbing, heating, drywall, and kitchen inspections are complete, awaiting a new owner’s finishing touches. The one-owner house has three bedrooms, two-and-a-half-baths, two living rooms, a formal dining room, a main-floor laundry, a finished partial basement, abundant storage areas, and a heated attached two-car garage. It was built with inch-thick plaster, solid oak, custom cabinetry and woodwork, and slate tiles, with a brick-and-cedar exterior. The buildings have individual septic systems, roofs less than 10 years old, fiber-optic service, and security systems. A 55-gpm well serves the house, barn, and a deep-buried country irrigation system. The property has grassy lawns, cobblestone and street-brick patios, and parklike tranquility among the trees, water, and hills.
