Welcome to The Sanctuary, a truly extraordinary log home retreat tucked away on five breathtaking acres in eastern Jefferson County. Properties like this rarely come to market - a place where tranquility, privacy, and convenience co-exist effortlessly. Though it feels a world apart, this remarkable home is just minutes from shopping, dining, and only 10 minutes from the Gene Snyder Freeway. Surrounded by mature forest, tranquil water features, and beautifully curated park-like grounds, The Sanctuary invites you to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the feeling of being on vacation every day. Enjoy the enchanting grounds via the private walking trail that winds through the property, offering peaceful exploration right outside your door! Designed to embrace its remarkable natural setting, this Northeastern-style log home of Maine features an inviting open floor plan anchored by a handsome stone fireplace, warm log construction, and expansive windows that frame ever-changing woodland views. The spacious kitchen flows seamlessly into the main living areas, creating an ideal setting for both entertaining and everyday living. Two immense decks provide the perfect perch for morning coffee, evening gatherings, or simply soaking in the peaceful surroundings and enjoying your own secluded woodland setting. The generous primary suite serves as a serene sanctuary of its own, featuring a fireplace, vaulted ceiling, walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub and separate walk-in shower. A private deck overlooking the woods creates a peaceful extension of the suite - the perfect place to start your day, unwind with a good book, or simply take in the sights and sounds of nature. The finished walkout lower-level offers exceptional versatility with a spacious family room, bar area, full bath, recreation room, flex space ideal for guests or a home office, and a fourth bedroom currently used as a fitness room. This level opens directly to the outdoors with a stone patio, built-in gas grill and an oversized fire-pit, blending indoor comfort with the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Adding to the property's appeal is an outbuilding with electricity, offering exciting potential as an artist's studio, workshop, or creative retreat. Two large storage sheds provide ample space for equipment and hobbies. Whether you're strolling the wooded trail, relaxing by the ponds, or enjoying the quiet of your private acreage, every corner of this property offers a sense of calm and connection. Wander the approximately one-third-mile walking trail, enjoy the soothing sounds of nature, and experience a lifestyle that feels like a year-round vacation. The Sanctuary is more than a home - it's a private haven, a lifestyle, and an exceptionally rare opportunity to own a true piece of serenity in Jefferson County.
