About This Home

As of July 2015

(js48) A beautifully treed homesite is the setting for this well maintained log home that meets all the requirements for full time or vacation main level living. The warm and inviting feel of this home begins with the covered front porch and babbling pond next to the screen porch. Upon entering the home you immediately feel the owners have kept to the true nature and feel of a log home with décor, wood floors and vaulted wood ceilings that give balance to the floor-to-ceiling wood burning cultured stone fireplace. The kitchen has newer Corian counter-tops and the laundry area is conveniently adjacent. The main level also includes the Master bedroom and bath with walk-in closet, double vanity, whirlpool and separate shower. Privacy and seclusion are offered on the main level deck which can be accessed from the living room, guest bedroom and Master bedroom. The lower level has 2 additional guest bedrooms and 2 baths with access to the lower deck. The spacious family room also has access to the lower level deck which leads to the fire-pit area. Other features of the home include: storage area, R20 insulated foundation walls, 2 car garage, retaining walls and natural native landscaping. Most of the furnishings of this home are easily negotiated at time of closing on a separate bill of sale.
