About This Home

As of September 2020

Room with a view, you say? How about views from every room? This lovely, more than lovely bi-level sits atop a knoll with panoramic views on every side! Quiet, quiet setting on over 4 cleared acres. Open the front door to be greeted by an inviting foyer leading upstairs to a modern eat-in kitchen with separate dining area and formal dining room. This level also features spacious, bright living room with propane fireplace and a spacious master bedroom suite with large closets and jack n jill master bath. Entirely finished lower level features two bedrooms, a large family room with free standing coal stove, laundry room and full bath. Walk through the large, enclosed breezeway with loads of storage into the enormous six car garage with one bay large enough for substantial camper (or truck). As if that's not enough, we'll throw in a huge rear deck an a detached two car garage (and room for a pony). Properties like this don't come along very often.
