About This Home

As of May 2021

Rustic and charm - this home has it all! The grand living room offers a ski-lodge feel with exposed beams and a wood-burning stove that heats the entire home during the winter months.

Enjoy your recently renovated (2017) kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, bar seating and reclaimed wood floors. The loft-style master bedroom receives warm southern sunlight and features a balcony overlooking your backyard! Once an in-law suite, the partially finished basement can be converted to a recreational room, gym, or whatever fits your family’s needs! The lower level also has a half-bath and laundry. Your future home sits on an acre of land suitable for family gatherings and gardening with a horse farm nearby.
