Warmth, Craftsmanship & Timeless Design

Set on 2.65 rolling acres, The Dakota is a study in restraint and warmth — a 4,600+ square foot home where the material palette does the talking. The vaulted great room anchors the main level, its reclaimed timber beams drawing the eye up and out to the acreage beyond, while a stone-clad hearth grounds the space in something quieter and older. Walnut carries through the home as a through-line: in the kitchen’s island and glass-front pantry cabinetry, in interior doors, in built-in millwork that reads as furniture rather than finish carpentry. Every cabinet is inset — a detail most buyers feel before they can name it, in the crisp shadow lines and the weight of a door closing flush.

Soft Neutrals Meet Bold Color

The chef’s kitchen pairs soft greige perimeter cabinetry with a dramatically veined marble and honed black stone, warmed by unlacquered brass fixtures that will patina beautifully with use. Off the great room, a three-season porch extends the living space into the landscape, and the main-level primary suite is finished in a softer register — plaster-toned walls, limestone, and stone mosaic underfoot. The home is unafraid of color where color belongs: the office is fully drenched in a deep maroon, walls to trim to ceiling, creating a saturated, library-like retreat that feels intentional rather than accented.

Elevated Living on the Lower Level

The finished lower level continues the story with additional bedrooms, a generous entertainment and game space, a tucked-away bath in moody green tile and brass, and the kind of storage that makes daily life effortless. Throughout, the design refuses trend in favor of permanence — timeless craftsmanship, honest materials, and the clean lines of modern living. It’s a home built for refined everyday living and for the kind of entertaining that spills easily from kitchen to hearth to porch.
