Beyond a home, this property is a world in itself, a serene portal to something rare and sacred. This magical wood home sits on 13.4 private acres, adjacent to 100+ acres of conserved forest land that will never be developed. It's fenced off and set up for all your homesteading dreams with a large open barn, 3 coops, 2 gardens, 2 sheds, a double stable, a raised platform in the woods, and a two-story Forest Temple designed and crafted by artists. Favorite features of the house are all the windows, the spacious screened porch, the wood stove, the unique modern rustic design, and the enchanting feel of being surrounded by nature in all directions. Favorite thing about the location is the immense peace and headspace one can feel here with just the sound of the birds, frogs, and crickets; despite being so close to "civilization": DC is only 24 miles away. Favorite things about the lifestyle are the daily forest bathing and the amazing community here: The Moyaone Reserve is unlike any other place in the world, a community founded by a female artist in the 1940s to honor nature and preserve a certain way of life. The current residents are some of the kindest and most interesting people you'll ever meet. Creatives, scientists, and dreamers all get pulled into these woods and stay for decades because what it offers is truly unlike anything else, a perfect blend of being "in the world" and away from it as well. The riverside trails offer several options for daily walks and enjoyment of the beauty of Piscataway Park. For those interested in homeschooling, there is a strong network of families supporting each other. There's a community swimming pool and events are held there regularly bringing all the generations of this incredible community together. There are also a few family-owned farms in the community and the largest one borders this property to provide you with the best meat, dairy, and seasonal vegetables. This place is a private paradise that is healing, inspiring, and completely transformative.
