About the Listing 26717 - 503514910
Set on 2 private acres in Rochester, this distinctive walkout ranch offers something rarely found in the conventional acreage market: a fully completed outdoor environment designed for recreation, entertaining, and four-season enjoyment. Nearly $600,000 has been invested in the professionally designed outdoor setting, including extensive retaining walls, paved walkways, stone and rockwork, sculptures, multiple patios, a decorative pond with fountains and goldfish, and maintenance-free Trex decking along two sides of the home. Much of what appears to be landscaping is permanent, thoughtfully engineered infrastructure—already established and ready to enjoy without the years of construction and disruption required to recreate it elsewhere. Mature trees, perennial gardens, a large fire-pit area, an expansive level lawn, and a 16-zone irrigation system complete this private retreat. Inside, the grand foyer opens to a light-filled great room overlooking the grounds. The main level supports comfortable one-level living with a spacious primary suite and private hot-tub access, an elegant library with heated floors and a gas fireplace, a generous dining room, and an inviting kitchen with granite countertops and abundant workspace. The walkout lower level provides three additional bedrooms, a family room with a coffered ceiling, a game room, and a wet bar—creating flexible space for guests, recreation, and extended gatherings. Garage and hobby space are equally impressive. The heated and air-conditioned three-car attached garage offers more than 1,000 square feet with extensive built-in cabinetry. A separate 740-square-foot heated and air-conditioned outbuilding adds exceptional flexibility for storage, hobbies, or projects and includes a potting station with a commercial stainless-steel countertop and sink. This free-standing climate-controlled building could be converted into a mother-in-law casita. Meticulously maintained and ready for selective personalization, this is more than a two-acre home. It is a private Rochester retreat offering a lifestyle that would be extraordinarily difficult and costly to reproduce.
