This renovated farmhouse has been tastefully updated over the past 15 to 20 years with a mix of modern features and reclaimed original materials. Owners were able to refinish some of the original wood wall panels and hardwood flooring during the renovation, and blended them with modern finishes such as granite countertops and custom cabinetry. The living room has a brick fireplace with wood burning insert, and there are several covered porches on both levels of the home to enjoy the the peaceful country setting. The land is rolling to sloping, with numerous potential building sites, several springs, and views of the surrounding valleys and mountains. Long range mountain views are available on the upper portions, and most of the land is gentle enough to ride UTVs and hike on. A mix of open pasture and hardwoods adds to the diversity and potential uses of the land. A long, flat knoll accents the top elevation of the land. There is a detached garage/workshop/carport with a chicken coop, and utensil sheds. A small strip of land across the road from the house is being included that gives access to the creek for recreation or livestock. Acreage is estimated based on GIS tax measurement, as a survey is underway to determine exact acreage. Taxes are estimated based on the new survey/division underway. Some furnishings will be available for purchase outside of closing after the sellers remove the family heirlooms and antiques. Septic permit is for 2 bedrooms, but 4 rooms are currently used for sleeping. It is possible the septic system could be expanded based on the size of the site and topography/distance from water features. Interested buyers and agents would need to consult with the county health department or environmental specialist to determine feasibility of this option.
