Surrounding you are views of thick woods, colorful flowers, abundant wildlife, and an uncrowded lake. This property affords you such absolute privacy that you neither see nor hear other human activity. This could be the dream of peace and quiet that you and your family have been looking for. Plus you have flexible purchase options: a 14+/- acre tract with 700+/- feet of US Government boundary and 2 living quarters with additional acreage available (to 42+/- total acres). The entire property is a mix of open pasture (about 20%) and woodland (about 80%) with a multitude of foot trails, a waterfall, and opportunities for recreation, retreat, and money-making ventures. The main house is a 1- story 3BR 2BA custom log home with a 240 sq. ft. passive solar 4-season sunroom. The efficiently ample kitchen space includes lunch counter that opens to the family room with its massive masonry fireplace. Sunroom, master suite with claw-foot tub and several closets complete the first floor. And the first floor living area is beautifully extended to the outside by the 730 sq. ft. of deck, shaded by elm trees to give you cool shade in the warm months and warm sunshine in the cool months. Upstairs is a large bedroom along with a full bath and a huge room that can have multiple purposes to meet your own tastes and desires. This room has been used as a bedroom, upstairs lounge, and office – all at the same time! Its windows are positioned for seasonal views of the two coves down at the lake as well as the yard and extensive woodlands to the south. The wide plank pine floor gives a feeling of extra warmth and strength to this hand-crafted home. The other living quarters is a studio apartment (850+ sq. ft.) with 2 decks to provide bright airy space for guests, teenagers, granny, or for your private retreat. A ground floor workshop with a laundry room features additional work and storage space under the two shed roofs with concrete floors running the length of the building. The workshop, where all walls are pegboard, has room to hold two vehicles and all your projects plus your tools, lumber, and equipment that need to stay “in the dry.” So, if you are looking for tranquility and peaceful living with activities galore, this could be your own private paradise.
