Welcome to 278 Peck Rd in Salisbury, NY!
Surrounded by richly needled Adirondack pines, this is the kind of property that makes you realize that it’s often the small details of thoughtful design that make a home truly special.
As you enter the property from the road, you’re greeted by the sounds of Canada geese flying overhead and the sweet smell of evergreens warmed by the sun. Moving closer, this beautiful 2352 sq.ft., custom-built home with a cultured Adirondack river rock and honey-toned hardy board facade comes into full view. This 5 bedroom, 3.5 baths home, built in 2012, is simply stunning.
A quaint front porch with hand-carved bears is a welcoming sight as you walk up the steps and imagine the space as the perfect spot to catch a quiet moment with a morning cup of coffee.
Opening the door you’re immediately drawn to the rustic feel of an Adirondack lodge…yet with a lighter, more modern vibe of a contemporary home. A beautifully centered staircase anchors the open floorplan connecting the kitchen, dining and living rooms. The warm color pallet of the walls, the pine ceilings with finish work (hewn from trees on the property) and the abundance of natural light streaming into the space is a work of art that speaks to the owners penchant for masterfully incorporating the beauty of nature into the home’s interior design.
The hand-scraped birch floors throughout the home are simply breathtaking, as are the multiple built-ins and meticulous craftsmanship from every angle.
The spacious kitchen is a chef’s dream with its chopping block center island with 5-burner GE cooktop, hand-glazed hard maple cabinetry with corona sink and tile backsplash, GE Profile Stainless Steel refrigerator with ice/water door dispenser and built-in Frigidare Gallery oven.
Connected to the open kitchen is a beautifully lit dining area with direct access to the large screened-in porch and spacious open deck facing the back yard. Also connected to the open floorpan of the house is a hall leading to the lower level with washer/dryer area and built-in workstation.
The main floor master suite, off the living room area, is an extra large bedroom with large walk-in closet and ensuite full bath with a luxury glass sink with old mahogany hutch vanity.
Flanking the opposite side of the home is another spacious bedroom retreat with spacious walk-in closet and ensuite bath featuring a relaxing jacuzzi tub and stand alone shower.
On the upper level you’ll find a loft area ideal for a quiet reading nook and two good-size bedrooms, one with an ensuite half bath. The space has abundant natural light streaming in from the wall of windows facing the front of the house, giving the entire upper level a light and airy feeling.
Heading downstairs to the basement level, you’ll find a fully finished space equipped with kitchen, living room, dining area, bedroom and full bath. It’s the perfect guest suite or perhaps the ultimate rustic man cave.
Other features include: two sources of heat (wood furnace and propane forced air), a 2-car detached garage and shed with water and electric run to both, Anderson double-hung, double-pane fold in windows, 200 amp electrical box, extra roof insulation with r40 sprayed-foam insulation and r50 poured walls in the basement.
The beauty of this home makes you appreciate the vision, craftsmanship and attention to details the owners put into creating this very unique property.
