Curving around farm fields and through a wooded ravine, a 10-acre property opens into rolling hillsides secluded from nearby neighborhoods. At the center is a custom-built home and a matching barn; both buildings offer flexible living space and working space options.

Listed for $1,275,000 by Irongate Inc. Realtors, the stone, cedar and vinyl ranch at 1519 Kingsway Drive has about 5,400 square feet of living space — including a full walk-out lower level. The 10-acre property includes the crop field along the gravel driveway that ends within a concrete driveway and parking area. The 60-by-25-foot barn has a stone exterior with a metal roof. An oversized overhead door allows for recreational and multiple vehicle storage; and a single door allows entry into a possible workshop or office space as the barn has its own separate heating and cooling system.

Attached to the barn is a 1,080-square-foot guesthouse, which is currently being used as an Airbnb. The guesthouse has an open-concept floor plan with a combined living room and kitchen with island under a repurposed wood plank paneled ceiling. The bedroom has two closets with a ladder-access storage nook or child hideout. The full bathroom has a ceramic-tile shower and there is a separate laundry room. A back door opens to a wooden deck and fire pit.

The same country-chic design elements can be found in the flexible living space of the main residence. Rough-cut wood beams accent the cathedral ceiling above the great room and offsets the kitchen and breakfast room. White stone curves within a nook of the great room to surround the gas fireplace, which has a barn-beam mantel. An arched cutout allows for natural light to filter into the great room from the arched window above the formal entry. A matching arched window is above the windows and glass doors that provide panoramic views of the rolling hills and tree lines. The double glass doors open out to a wooden balcony deck.

An island with dual granite counter offers bar seating for four and workspace within the galley-style kitchen. The island has a double sink, dishwasher and storage. White cabinetry fills two walls and includes open shelves and a pantry cabinet with roll-out shelves. Subway tile accents the wall space and appliances include wall ovens, a range and refrigerator. A wood-capped pass-through allows windows views from the kitchen through the formal dining room. The dining room has an arched window and angled ceiling that is barn-like. Hardwood flooring fills all the open socials areas and continues down the hallway to the bedroom wing.

Tucked off the breakfast room is a wide hallway that provides access to a laundry room with built-in locker benches, a hidden staircase to a bonus room with cathedral ceiling and wrought-iron railing accents, interior access to the two-car garage, and double door entry to the primary bedroom.

The primary bedroom has several windows overlooking the property. Sliding barn doors open into a walk-in closet while another opens into the private bathroom. The bath has a corner, free-standing soak tub below two large windows, two separate vanities with bowl sinks and a walk-in ceramic-tile shower with rain shower glass doors.

A hallway off the dining room leads to the stairwell to the walk-out lower level. The stairwell ends within the recreation room with rough-cut paneled walls and exposed floor-joist ceiling. A wall of windows and glass doors fill the room with natural light. Double doors open out to a covered concrete patio that leads down to a fire pit area.
