Welcome to Deer Field Estate, an extraordinary private retreat where space, privacy, and endless possibilities come together on nearly 15 acres. Homes of this size and character, with this combination of amenities and acreage, are rarely offered for sale. Tucked away behind a wooded perimeter, this impressive all-brick estate offers more than 6,500 square feet of living space, 5 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, 6 fireplaces, 6 garages, extensive outdoor living areas, and room to enjoy the property in countless ways. The heart of the home is its inviting living spaces, beginning with a beautiful custom kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. A large formal dining room provides an elegant setting for holiday dinners and special gatherings, while multiple spacious family rooms offer plenty of room to relax and spend time together. Throughout these spaces, the warmth of multiple fireplaces creates a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Inside, the scale of the home is immediately apparent. The massive primary suite provides a true private retreat, complete with its own private deck and an abundance of space. The primary suite also has a last bathroom with large jet soaking tub and shower. Along with a massive walk in closet for all your clothes. The home has two additional private in-law suites offer exceptional flexibility for extended family, guests, multigenerational living, or private accommodations. Each in-law suite is on each side of the home with its own bedroom, bathroom and living rooms. The one suite also has its own full kitchen and can be accessed separately from the main home if needed. For those who appreciate having room for hobbies, equipment, and projects, the property is exceptionally well equipped. Four attached garages are complemented by a workshop, while a large detached two-car garage/shed provides even more storage and workspace. Whether you need space for vehicles, recreational equipment, a workshop, or simply want plenty of room to spread out, Deer Field Estate delivers. The outdoor spaces are equally impressive. A large brick patio provides an ideal setting for entertaining, with both covered and open-air areas that allow you to enjoy the property in any season. A full-size exterior basketball court adds another recreational option, while the surrounding woods create a peaceful backdrop and an unmatched sense of privacy. The property also offers a unique opportunity for those looking for a small farm or recreational retreat. A large fenced field contains five separate fenced pens where deer were previously raised. Continue the tradition of raising deer or reimagine the space for horses or other livestock. A private walking and ATV trail winds through the woods, offering an amenity that is rare to find right outside your door. The wooded acreage is also home to abundant natural deer and wildlife, making this a particularly appealing property for hunting and outdoor enthusiasts. Perhaps the greatest feature of Deer Field Estate is the privacy. The property is surrounded by woods, creating a secluded setting that feels like your own private retreat out in the country while only being a short 10 minute drive to town. This property has been meticulously maintained and a new roof was installed in 2026, adding an important recent improvement to this exceptional property. Deer Field Estate is a home that can help you create many memories with your family. Whether your vision is a secluded family estate, recreational property, hobby farm, hunting retreat, or simply a place where you can enjoy an extraordinary amount of space and privacy, this rare offering deserves to be experienced in person.
