The architecture is defined by a grand spiral staircase and third-floor dormer windows that capture the light across 5,587 square feet of living space. Four bedrooms and four bathrooms are complemented by refined interior details, including cherry hardwoods, dental moldings, and a kitchen anchored by a Viking range and a double-sided fireplace. Beyond the main residence, the grounds are meticulously landscaped with Japanese maples and muscadine grapes, featuring a climate-controlled 1,080-square-foot barn and a separate tractor shed.
