About This Home

As of June 2020

This is one you have to see! Stepping inside this home, it grows and expands before your eyes! This Esko ranch style home offers tons of space for you in a convenient location! The 3+ bedroom, 2+ bath home sits on 5 acres with all the updates and amenities you're looking for! The kitchen includes a useful island/breakfast bar, updated appliances, and a nice birch kitchen to give you that “home-y” feel! The dining room is large and would be perfect for that big dining room table! A wood stove was added to the stone fireplace in this room to bring added heat and comfort to the home! The living room is expansive with vaulted ceilings and a wall of windows to let the sun in! From here, you can go out to the 700 sq ft deck to enjoy time outdoors! A Master bedroom on this floor includes vaulted ceilings, oversized closet, and a full en-suite bath complete with jacuzzi tub! Two more bedrooms and a full bath complete the rest of the main floor! Follow the wide staircase down to the lower level and you’ll find a massive family/rec room space complete with home theater! If that wasn’t enough, a Finlandia sauna is located just right off this room and is huge! The Sellers finished an additional family room area with two rooms off of it currently used as bedrooms! One thing that doesn’t lack in this lower level is storage, there’s tons of it! Lower level also includes a laundry room and in-floor heat (and throughout the home)! Outside you’ll find a wonderful 3 car garage and an additional 1 car garage, perfect for boat or other storage. A brand new well drilled last year, vinyl siding, city sewer, and so much more make this home maintenance free and move-in ready!
