This is a special 3 bdrm/2 bath, log sided house on 1.06 treed acres in Alta. The location is ideal as the property is close to the elementary school, the local church, post office, community center and fire station. This home boasts many charming features including a dramatic Shelburne, brown majolica enamel wood stove, an open log beam ceiling, natural oak flooring and beautifully sealed wood surfaces throughout. During the extensive remodel between 2011 and 2012 dual pane windows were installed both in the house and in the garage. The kitchen remodel included granite counters, flooring, new cabinets and backsplash. There are extra sleeping areas over the garage for the kids. Enjoy sitting on the front patio under the sunsetter awning for outdoor BBQs or family entertaining during the warm weather. The property has many mature pine trees and low maintenance ornamentals and shrubs. This is a home not to be missed, perfect for a weekend getaway or the first time home buyer.
