This exceptional home, set upon 10 magnificent acres, with 5 bedrooms and 5.1 baths; the owner's commitment to quality, superb good taste and the willingness to "think out of the box" were the perfect combination to tackle building a home that was functional and would meet lifestyle changes that were sure to emerge.

The home has a definite touch of "whimsy" and is unlike other homes in the area. There is a wonderful balance between the practicality of the home and the artistry of the home. There is a feeling of ambiance and charm throughout. The grounds are very special, complete with walking paths, a "secret garden," pond and mature trees and gardens. Years of planning and planting are obvious as the landscape is natural and not contrived. Treasured and nostalgic pieces will be given an honored place in this memorable and one-of-a-kind residence-a place you will love to call home.

This home is brand new and there is nothing ordinary about this home. This is a two-story home built and designed with uncommon quality and many of the quality items are not seen. For example when the concrete foundation was poured, double rebar steel was used while most homes do not have this feature. Another example, when the home is wrapped for moisture barrier most builders use a popular wrap whereas Jina Builders used a more durable wrap made by the same company. When the sub-floors are installed, the floors are water sealed. These betterments just indicate that this builder will go to any length to build a quality home.
