Rarely does a ranch of this scale come to market. Set on a private, tree-lined .85 acre lot in Orange, this architecturally distinctive 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home offers almost 2,900 square feet of single-story living with an effortless indoor-outdoor flow made for entertaining, family gatherings, and lasting memories. The heart of the home is the great room, where soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, warm wood-planked walls, skylights, and a wood-burning fireplace create an unmatched warmth and character. The expansive eat-in kitchen flows into the formal dining room and living room, each bathed in natural light, with a second wood-burning fireplace anchoring the living room. A study with custom built-ins and french doors is ideal for a sophisticated work from home setup. Both the great room and the dramatic 500+ square foot sunroom open directly to the paver patio wired for outdoor speakers, overlooking a large partially fenced backyard. The sunroom features a vaulted beadboard ceiling, expansive cabinetry, and wet bar with butcher block countertops. The primary suite is generously sized with a full bath, skylight and jetted tub. A beautifully updated full bath in the main hall features marble tile, glass-enclosed shower, bench, and double sinks. Two half baths, three additional bedrooms, a walk-up attic, central A/C, and a two-car garage complete this exceptional home in the award-winning Amity School District.
