Perennial and annual flowers, bushes and mature trees make the property a private hideaway. The neighborhood is home to a herd of deer and a flock of wild turkeys, as well as various rabbits, squirrels, and local indoor / outdoor cats. At the front of the house is a bluestone walkway lined with solar powered lights that leads from the asphalt driveway to the front door. Flanking the front door are wooden decks with Adirondack chairs and tables. The front yard features mature trees, an oval garden with beautiful bushes, grasses and perennials, a young weeping willow on one side and a grove of Emerald Green Thuya trees on the other. The huge back yard is bordered by woods and a ravine on the back and one side. A bluestone patio with resin wicker furniture and a propane grill is accessible via a sliding glass door from the Media Room. A charming garden shed with firewood rack is in the back yard. Running along the back of the house is a raised garden with bluestone walls with a magnificent weeping Norway spruce and other plantings and sculpture. A bluestone path leads from the Media Room patio to the cobble stone firepit at the center of a bluestone patio with Adirondack chairs and tables. A cascade with the meditative sounds of falling water and a pond made of river cobbles with seasonal water lilies and hyacinths and surrounded by bushes complete the wonderful setting. There are lights that illuminate the back yard trees and plants at night and create a magical landscape.
