Open fields transition into wooded acreage, with the river creating a natural boundary and quiet setting. The approach and surrounding landscape provide both seclusion and accessibility. The home features three bedrooms and two bathrooms, centered around an open kitchen and living area with vaulted ceilings and natural wood finishes. Large windows frame views of the property. An oversized fireplace with hearth anchors the space, with a fan system designed to circulate heated air, while a decorative indoor water feature adds a calm, natural element. Multiple heating sources, including oil baseboard, a wood stove, and an additional wood furnace, provide flexibility. A generator system supports continuity, and the private well includes whole-house filtration with UV sanitation. A detached outbuilding, with a second generator system, expands the property's utility. Configured as a medical cannabis grow facility (last used in 2022), it includes spray foam insulation, finished drywall interior, reverse osmosis system, climate control, and electrical infrastructure. Two 500-gallon rainwater catchment cisterns support irrigation for outdoor garden areas. The space may be adapted for other business uses, workshop space, or potential ADU, subject to approvals. Portions of land near the river are within a mapped flood hazard area, while the home and garage are located outside the flood zone based on available documentation. A property defined by privacy, flexibility, and long-term potential.
