About This Home

As of October 2021

Are you considering new construction? How about a high quality 95% new renovation? Some of the home's original bones were kept, but everything else is brand new including: roof structure, 50 year shingles, vinyl siding, windows, all plumbing, all electrical wiring, modern mini split heating and cooling system, insulation, sheetrock, tub, shower, all bath and kitchen cabinets, water heater, well pump, well pressure tank, entire septic system for 3BR, kitchen appliances (GE matching Fridge, Microwave, Oven, Dishwasher), LG Washer and Dryer. The home style strikes a compromise between clean modern (LED lighting, granite kitchen countertops with white subway tile backsplash, and clean bold trim) and a lodge type feel (floor to ceiling fieldstone fireplace, Brazilian Koa hardwood floors throughout, and black metal balusters on the stairs). Outside there is plenty of yard to play in and room for a garden. An expansive Trex deck just off the sun room is great for entertaining, relaxing or just enjoying seasonal views of Lake Zoar. Just down the hill, you can also access Lake Zoar for your favorite water activity. Ideal commuting location with quick access to 84. This home is ideal for someone who desires a new house on a mature property with landscaping.
