Property Description
Welcome to 161 Heckman Road, a brick estate set on nearly 12 acres in Temple, with panoramic hilltop views that reach all the way to the ridgeline. Sunrise and sunset both put on a show from here. Built in 1990 and fully renovated in 2026, the home offers over 7,000 square feet of living space where the heavy lifting is already done. The renovation runs top to bottom and includes a reimagined kitchen with quartz countertops, updated baths, new roofs on the home and the side garage, and new garage doors. A long private drive lined with mature apple trees brings you past the original stone bank barn that anchors the entrance. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout the main level. The foyer opens to a dining room on one side and the staircase on the other, with the family room straight ahead. That family room is the showpiece, with two story ceilings, exposed beams, a floor to ceiling stone fireplace, two chandeliers, and a door leading out to the deck. The kitchen is bright and built for gathering, finished with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a butcher block peninsula with seating. The breakfast room sits just beyond it under its own chandelier, and past that is a glass enclosed sunroom with walls and ceiling of glass, the kind of room that earns its keep in every season. A well appointed laundry room with cabinetry, a utility sink, and washer and dryer rounds out the main level. Two additional first floor rooms add flexibility that a house this size needs. One is set up as a home office and the other as a study, and either could just as easily work as a library, a music room, or a main level guest space. Upstairs, the primary suite features carpet and vaulted ceilings, with an en suite bath offering a double sink vanity, a soaking tub, and a walk in shower. Four additional bedrooms are carpeted, one with vaulted ceilings, two with a ceiling fan and light, and one with a ceiling light. A bonus room with vaulted ceilings opens off the last bedroom, ready to work as an office, a studio, or whatever the space needs to be. The hall bath is generously sized with a double sink vanity and a tub shower combination. The finished lower level is built for entertaining, with a wet bar, a fireplace, a pool table, and room to host a crowd comfortably. Outside is just as compelling. The stone bank barn is a striking landmark with real possibility ahead of it, whether as a workshop, a studio, a collector's space, or something entirely your own. A second outbuilding sits alongside fenced pasture, and raised garden beds line the drive. Open lawn rolls out from the house with a fire pit set into it, then gives way to nearly five acres of private woodland laced with walking trails. A two car attached garage and a three car detached garage handle vehicles, equipment, and storage. Panoramic views, a true country setting, and shopping, dining, and major commuter routes still within easy reach. Properties like this rarely come available. Schedule your private tour.
