About This Home
Welcome to tranquility. Windows galore flood this grand A frame with ample light. Settle into your brand new, oversized deck or bring your friends together for a cozy fire in the woods. Situated on the uphill side of a double lot, privacy and comfort abound. A FLAT, pull through driveway leads right to the front door! 2400 sq ft allows for spacious living w/ 4 BRs (TWO primary!), 2.5 BA, a renovated daylight basement (MIL potential), walk in closet, 2 living rooms, and so much more! You've got to see it to believe it! For bikers, a dirt jump course in the side yard is the cherry on top.
