Listed by Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Homesale Realty
Welcome to 4.78 acres of Bainbridge countryside, where a little breathing room comes standard and the loudest sound most mornings is birdsong. The split-level home offers four distinct levels and is just over 3,000 square feet, with three bedrooms, two full baths, and a layout that gives every room its own reason to exist. The living space stretches out comfortably, anchored by a wood-burning fireplace built for real fires, not just ambiance. Large windows pull daylight in from every angle, and a dedicated laundry room means baskets never take over a bedroom again. Downstairs, the basement offers serious storage plus a workshop space. Step outside, and the property does the rest of the talking. A screened-in porch gives you bugless evenings three seasons a year, while the wraparound patio wraps you in views from nearly every side of the house. The hardscaping was clearly a labor of love: a firepit area for late nights and a separate outdoor dining space for everything from Sunday dinners to backyard weddings. Then there's the pool: saltwater, in-ground, with its own deck and a cabana for shade, towels, or a second living room outdoors. Beyond the house, the land keeps giving. A horse barn sits ready for animals or storage, and a 40'x60' pole barn brings serious functionality with two docks and additional exterior storage- room for equipment, projects, a workshop, or all three. You will be greeted with deer and turkeys that roam the property. Modern comforts have kept pace with the property's charm. The primary bedroom has its own mini-split heat and air for personalized comfort, the electric was upgraded in 2022, a central vacuum system runs through every level of the home, and a whole-home generator means the lights stay on no matter what the weather brings. This is the kind of property people search for and rarely find: space, structure, storage, and comfort, all set against the quiet, picturesque backdrop of Bainbridge farmland. Come experience this dream come true for yourself. Watch the virtual tour!

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
