About This Home

As of October 2022

Great cape with river frontage on the Lemon Fair. This 3 bedroom two bath has a huge deck to enjoy the beautiful mountain views. Cathedral ceilings in the main living area provide a large open feeling. The kitchen is very large and looks out over the living area. The primary bedroom is on the main floor, as is a full bath and mudroom. Upstairs you will find two bedrooms and a full bath. The full basement is a walkout and has tons of room for storage. But THAT'S NOT ALL! There is a detached three car garage/barn with an accessory apartment above. Over 900 square feet of living space. It has a full kitchen, living room, two bedrooms, a full bath, wood floors and air conditioning! The lower level of the barn is walk out and has been used as a home for pheasants and sheep. Plenty of spaces outside for gardens and animals. This property directly abuts Richville Pond, which makes it perfect for waterfowling - imagine having a permanent duck blind and getting up, grabbing your coffee, and simply walking out your door to your blind with the decoys already set all before sunrise.
