About this home
Newly renovated and refreshed interior! Discover a remarkable combination of modern updates, luxurious living spaces, and extraordinary outdoor amenities in this distinctive walkout ranch situated on two private acres in Rochester. The main level has undergone a beautiful transformation! A wall separating the kitchen and great room has been removed, creating a bright, open-concept living space ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Professional painting in a fresh, light neutral color complements newly installed luxury vinyl plank flooring, replacing carpeting and tile. These thoughtful renovations bring a fresh, contemporary feel to the home while showcasing the generous room sizes, natural light, and beautiful views of the surrounding grounds. Nearly $600K has been invested in the professionally designed outdoor environment, creating a private retreat that would be extraordinarily difficult and costly to reproduce. Extensive retaining walls, paved walkways, stonework, sculptures, multiple patios, a decorative pond with fountains and goldfish, and maintenance-free Trex® decking along two sides of the home are just the beginning. Mature trees, perennial gardens, an expansive level lawn, a spacious fire-pit area, and a 16-zone irrigation system complete this spectacular setting. Much of this investment represents permanent, professionally engineered improvements rather than landscaping alone. The thoughtfully designed main level includes a spacious primary suite with private outdoor hot-tub access, an elegant library featuring heated floors and a gas fireplace, a generous dining room, and a beautifully opened kitchen with granite countertops, tile backspash and abundant workspace. The finished walkout lower level provides three additional bedrooms, a family room with an impressive coffered ceiling, a game room, and a wet bar—offering plenty of space for guests, entertaining, hobbies, and relaxation. For those who appreciate exceptional garage and hobby space, the heated and air-conditioned three-car attached garage offers more than 1,000 square feet with extensive built-in cabinetry. A separate 740-square-foot heated and air-conditioned elaborate outbuilding provides incredible flexibility for hobbies, storage, or projects. The building also offers potential for conversion into separate guest or multigenerational living quarters-AUD subject to applicable approvals. Meticulously maintained and now beautifully refreshed with today's preferred finishes and an open-concept design, this exceptional property offers the best of both worlds: an updated interior and a fully established private, outdoor retreat.
