Luxury Barndominium Retreat on Private 28 Acreage | Designed With Intention & Heart
We spent over two years custom-building this dream home, personally selecting every detail—from the hand-laid brickwork to the top-of-the-line appliances, open floor plan, and abundant natural light. The layout was intentionally designed to maximize uninterrupted views and complete privacy across the surrounding landscape. After the unexpected passing of my mother in 2025, our plans for this home changed. Rather than keep this place to ourselves, we chose to share it. We hope the home and property brings others together, to share all the joy, love, and lifelong memories.
This home is truly one of a kind and ideal for families, group stays, retreats, and guests looking for space, comfort, and thoughtfully curated amenities in a peaceful, private setting. We want your stay to be a 6 out of 5 stars, so we welcome full communication and feedback so that we can make the next stay even better.
