Set on a peaceful acre in Otsego's Mississippi Cove community, this custom-built rambler offers a refined blend of craftsmanship, generous space, and a setting that feels quietly removed while remaining close to major highways and everyday conveniences. Meticulously maintained, the home presents a bright and welcoming atmosphere from the moment you arrive. Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings and expansive picture windows draw the eye through the living room to views of the surrounding acreage, anchored by a gas fireplace. A quiet front dining room provides an inviting setting for gatherings and flows seamlessly into the kitchen. Designed for both culinary creativity and entertaining, the kitchen features rich alder cabinetry, abundant counter space, high-end appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a dedicated buffet with wine fridge overlooking the living area. Nearby, the mudroom offers built-in lockers, additional storage, and convenient main-level laundry. The private primary suite includes coved ceilings, a walk-out balcony overlooking the yard, and an ensuite bath with dual-head walk-in shower and jetted soaking tub. The walkout lower level expands the living space with a family room featuring a second fireplace and custom built-ins, along with two bedrooms, a full bath, office, and new kitchenette—ideal for entertaining or multigenerational living. A heated four-car garage and separate 30×40 heated outbuilding provide exceptional space for hobbies, storage, or workshop use.
