Description

LOOKING FOR A RURAL PARK-LIKE SETTING, BUT CLOSE TO TOWN? THIS IS IT! Close enough to town for natural gas and cable, but far enough out to have a 2.65 acre piece of peaceful paradise! A spectacular nicely landscaped and partially wooded lot with a creek at one side and farmer's field behind. The home was rehabbed in 2007 and has had many improvements since (see list with disclosures). Beautiful hardwood floors (with some inlays) throughout. Newer ledgestone gas fireplace in the living room and a wood burning fireplace (as is) in the dining room. Love to cook? Check out the spacious kitchen with tons of quarter sawn oak cabinetry and plenty of solid surface counter space including a center island. All stainless steel appliances and the peninsula has seating space for 3-4 people. The dining room opens to the living room giving options for expanded seating with large gatherings.The master bedroom has an attached master bath and is connected to the first floor laundry. Basement has access through the garage and could be an in-law living arrangement. Basement is finished with a large kitchen and dining area, 2 bedrooms with egress windows and a bathroom with shower. The other half of the basement offers plenty of storage space, plus a second laundry center. A second stairway to the first floor was covered with the rehab, but could be reopened. Recent improvements include a "whole house" generator powered by natural gas and automatically comes on when electricity goes off protecting all of the essentials (sump pump, well, furnace, appliances, etc.); new siding and stone accent, blacktop driveway, and garage/front porch flooring sealed and painted. Attached 2 car garage. The 26'X27' pole building offers more parking and storage space, OR... the building can be heated (insulation and gas wall heater -as is- in place). Property includes an abundance of trees, bushes, a small pond, fenced in area, and a fire pit. Take a walk (off property) down the creek path for a half mile. This is truly a park-like setting with direct access to the creek and a path perfect for walking, 4-wheeling, cross country skiing, or snowmobiling! Come on out to discover all this property has to offer. Realtor owned.
