Welcome to Storybook--where dreams unfold and memories are captured. This enchanting 15.28-acre estate combines lifestyle and opportunity with a proven wedding and events venue. Rooted in charm, Storybook features a stunning 2-story 1880s barn and a Civil War-era cottage, all watched over by a custom-designed, 6-bedroom, 6-bath arts-and-crafts style residence. The temperature-controlled barn is a showstopper--soaring ceilings, exposed hand-stained beams, iron chandeliers, stained glass accents, and 100 year-old doors. It includes a spacious bridal suite, groom's room, and two ADA-compliant public bathrooms. The catering kitchen is outfitted with commercial-grade appliances, and much of the venue's furnishings and branding conveys with the sale. Outdoor amenities include a firepit area, vintage gazebo, grain silo for storage or vendors, and a pavilion--all ideal for weddings, retreats, and celebrations. The historic writer's cottage blends original pine flooring and brick fireplace with modern updates, keeping many historical details and charm intact while giving you the experience of a Tolkien or Lewis novel in real life. The three-story main estate, built just 14 years ago, features craftsmanship inspired by Europeantravels--oak hardwood floors, custom 8' doors, tall ceilings, and panoramic windows. The main kitchen has handmade oak cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless appliances. The upper-level primary suite boasts Alder wood floors, vaulted ceilings, and a luxurious bath with soaking tub. Downstairs includes a second kitchen and open living space with black brick herringbone floors and fireplace. With generous parking, two entrances--including Longline Road--and development potential, Storybook offers a unique opportunity to live, create, and grow.
