Architecturally designed cabin with vaulted pine paneled tongue and groove ceilings. Expansive use of glass in the living room allows you to capture the full ambience of this premier pastoral setting. Floor to ceiling used brick fireplace with wood insert should make it cozy and warm on cold winter days. An open kitchen island with loads of counter space seems most inviting. A detached garage with carport is easily accessible by paved driveway. Once upon a time this exceptional parcel had cattle roaming on it, so it's fenced and cross-fenced. The home feels secluded with 62 acres to the left of you, and 13 acres to the right. This special short sale property only has one lender to negotiate terms with and awaits your offer.
