Custom post and beam design, rustic elegance and tranquil surroundings describe this 4-5 bedroom - three bath home spanning three levels to provide privacy for all. It is set back approximately 300 feet from the road situated on 5.3 wooded sustainable acres offering trails, two brooks, fruit trees and berry bushes. This home calls to all who would embrace a self sufficient lifestyle. The nine raised garden beds have nurtured soil for healthy plant growth. Energy efficiency has been carefully thought of. A solar hot water system services the home reducing electric dependency. A wood stove on the main level and a coal stove in the lower level have been installed reducing the need for the conventional oil baseboard heat. A generator hook up is in the home just in case the need arises. The large windows and skylights allow for bright rooms without the use of electricity and they allow for the calming effect that being in nature conveys to us. Listen to the songs of the finch and the chickadee as they serenade you in the early morning and watch the animals of the forest venture out of the woods to visit you from time to time. Explore the forest and find the giant whale rock and the beautiful waterfall. Pick your own apples, pears, peaches, blueberries, raspberries and more! The possibility for an in-law space as well as the potential for a barn and raising animals are here.
