About This Home

As of December 2018

If you're looking to get out from the city a little bit, live self sufficiently, have some animals like goats, pigs, chickens & lots of gardens, enjoy the peace & quiet of country living......then look no further! This awesome rambler has all you need! New solar panels & heating units were installed in 2013 which make heating extremely affordable (plus there's a wood burning stove in the lower level as well). A new septic was also installed in Dec 2013. This well built home also boast newer windows, hardwood floors, new flooring in the kitchen & dining room & new paint throughout. The main floor has a wonderfully open feeling between the kitchen, dining & living rooms. 3 main floor bedrooms along with a full bath. The lower level has another legal bedroom, another that's being used as a den/office/bedroom, a walk out family room with wood burning stove & another bathroom. Plus there's a huge workshop/storage room & utility space.
