Where poetic tranquility meets architectural elegance, this Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Prairie Home rests atop 11 beautiful acres with sweeping views of Stone Valley. Designed for peace and connection to nature, the property features a pergola-covered dining patio with flowering vines, tiered gardens, a fruit orchard and tranquil groves for quiet reflection. Stone patios and a lily pond invite relaxation with the valley as a stunning backdrop. Inside, thoughtful details abound: corner and picture windows with southern exposure frame spectacular views and sunrises from both first- and second-floor suites. The grand living room centers on a massive wood-burning fireplace, complemented by custom woodwork, a cherry kitchen, quarter-sawn oak office, vaulted ceilings with hidden uplighting, radiant floors, mini-split AC, earth-toned walls, stained glass, and copper gutters accenting rustic cedar siding. With three en-suite bedrooms (including a 2020 first-floor addition), an office, and a bonus room, the home blends comfort and style. Ideal for remote work with fast internet and dedicated spaces, it also appeals to hobbyists and gardeners with a heated workshop/studio, gym, two-car and tractor garages, four-tier garden, hoop house, root cellar, and three storage sheds.
