Own a Piece of History in This Expansive Rambler—Former Residence of Senator Robert Knowles
Set in a stunning, park-like landscape with a private walking trail leading directly to the golf course, this impressive rambler masterfully blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates.
From the moment you step inside, the open foyer sets the tone—welcoming you into a sunken living room adorned with a striking wood-burning fireplace and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light. Just beyond, a cozy three-season porch offers panoramic views of serene surroundings and local wildlife—your own peaceful retreat.
Designed for both comfort and entertaining, the informal dining room flows effortlessly into the living room and the beautifully remodeled kitchen. The kitchen is truly the heart of the home, featuring crisp white cabinetry, a center island, stunning stone countertops, a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, and elegant finishes. A sunroom just off the kitchen provides additional living space and opens to the backyard—perfect for morning coffee or sunset unwinding.
Convenience meets flexibility with a combination laundry room and office space on the main level, complete with direct access to the backyard.
