Remarks and Miscellaneous

Public Remarks: Set on approximately 78 acres in Valparaiso, St. Brigid Farm is a rare estate where refined living, natural landscape, and infrastructure come together. The setting offers a blend of open ground and wooded surroundings, offering privacy while remaining within reach of Valparaiso's amenities. The exquisite residence offers 9,835 finished square feet above grade with 4 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms (4 full, 2 half), reflecting superior craftsmanship, material quality, and intentional design. An elevator provides seamless access to all three levels. The main level is anchored by a great room with rich wood accents and a beamed ceiling, introduced by a foyer with a double-sided gas fireplace. The chef's kitchen is equipped with custom cabinetry, a Wolf range with griddle and double ovens, Wolf steam oven and microwave, two warming drawers, two Sub-Zero refrigerators, two dishwashers, and two farmhouse sinks, along with a beverage and coffee station with wine refrigeration and a spacious walk-in pantry. A vaulted sunroom with a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning fireplace and expansive Andersen windows captures views of the surrounding land and pond, with a screened porch extending the space outdoors. The main-level primary suite includes built-in storage, a custom walk-in closet, and an en suite bath with rain shower, jetted soaking tub, heated floors, towel warmer, and integrated audio. The upper level includes 3 additional bedrooms, including a dedicated bunk room, along with a recreation room and secondary flex room with built-in cabinetry and wet bar. The lower level offers a footprint of 6,100+ square feet with daylight windows and opportunity for future expansion. A private pond designed by a wetland scientist and a timber-frame barn with four box stalls, radiant heated areas, stocked hay mow and utility space further support the property's versatility. A gated entry, whole-house generator, buried utilities, and commercial-grade internet complete this exceptional offering.
