About 14960 West 21st Street

Attention Equestrians, Car Enthusiasts, and "Farmette" seekers! Highly sought after 5 acre estate poised on a private road surrounded by equestrian farms and "farmettes". Enjoy over 5000 sq ft of living in this custom built, contemporary gem, situated amidst wildflowers, native grasses, and majestic trees. Almost every room of the house has vaulted ceilings with rustic beams and skylights and literally walls of windows in almost every room! An open staircase with a catwalk leads to the second floor where you'll find the original primary suite with an awesome balcony and en suite bath, as well as two other generously sized bedrooms that share a tandem bath. They all have great closet space, lofted areas, and views overlooking the rear of the property. The first floor is home to a fabulous updated country kitchen with a large eating area, and high end appliances such as Sub Zero and Thermador. The ceilings are vaulted and highlighted with natural beams. The family room has a wall of windows, vaulted ceilings with beams, a woodburning fireplace, and awesome loft. There are large pass through areas to both the great room and the family room from the kitchen, keeping it as the nucleus of every gathering, and allowing for ease of serving. An additional 5th bedroom/office/in law or au pair suite is privately situated off the back of the house with its own private entrance. The den, situated at the far end of the house overlooking the rear yard, is a great secondary spot to light a fire and watch the birds and wild life through the floor to ceiling windows. The first floor also has a full bath and a powder room to easily service all of these multiple spaces! The first floor primary suite anchors the east end of the house. It is a true retreat with a lovely gas fireplace, spa bath with jetted tub and separate steam shower, as well as an enormous walk in closet, with built in ironing board. The finished area of the basement has an incredible craft or work room, with cabinetry, sink, and convenient exterior entrance to the attached 4 car garage. There is also a separate deep pour area of the basement, currently unfinished, that would be ideal for a sport court or multiple recreational activities. For the car enthusiasts, in addition to the 4 car attached garage, there is a detached garage with the capability to accommodate a minimum of 7 cars, and there is room to add lifts if one desired. The current owners love to enjoy the backyard patio and grounds...they even have a few bee hives that will transfer with the property. This is a great location in an unincorporated area of Wadsworth, just minutes to Rt41 and 94, as well as the WI border. If you are looking for a private, quiet, tranquil retreat...possibly for equestrian use, this is the ONE!
