Property Description
Unifying nautical design cues with a natural wooded setting, this custom-designed architectural treasure is truly livable art. The vision of renowned artist David Ellsworth, Fox Creek is a secluded contemporary compound consisting of the three-bedroom home, two detached garages and two studio buildings on 20 subdividable acres surrounded by state park land and township open space land. Enter and be embraced by an artistic ambiance that will take your breath away! The open concept interior offers museum-quality design and custom features. The expansive great room has white oak floor, exposed beams and ponderosa pine tongue-and-groove ceiling, and a new propane stove with Carrera marble and Venetian glass hearth and zebra wood mantle. Huge picture windows frame the ever-changing natural landscape, drawing the outdoors in while taking advantage of a southern exposure for light-filled rooms. The dining area is open to the updated kitchen with abundant cabinets, granite counters, stainless appliances, maple island and Claro walnut breakfast bar. The sitting area has 2-story ceiling and through French doors is a cozy alcove leading to the expansive screened porch and gravel patio with waterfall. An office or 4th bedroom with tile floor, tiled full bath, and laundry room complete the main level.
