This home dates back to 1955. Recent renovations include a new full bath with custom fixtures, new kitchen with granite counters, apron-front 'shaw' sink, gas stove/oven, stainless steel refridgerator/freezer, pre-finished oak flooring, custom lighting and new washer & dryer.

A new half bath was installed on the second floor. The new hot air gas heating system is supplemented by the wood-stove insert installed in the fireplace. There is a drilled well for all household water as well as a pump system for drawing water from the lake for irrigation. The chambered leach field is installed beneath the circular driveway. Other features include a video camera security system, a backyard patio and a covered porch entry!
