About This Home

As of June 2021

3 bed, 2+ bath, 6+ car garage/pole building home located on 100 acres just outside of town. You can have it all with this home that is neatly tucked away among the pines yet minutes away from small town living. This home was crafted with one level living in mind, yet an additional bedroom in the lower level with the option of adding a sauna. The upstairs loft is ready to be used as a den, office or bedroom and with a little handy man work there is an option to add an additional bathroom if desired.
