Nestled in the countryside just south of Centerville in the area neighboring Cope Environmental Center property, this traditional mid-century A-frame home sits on 1.49 partially wooded acres. For year 'round living or a secluded get-away, this cozy and super interesting home packs a lot of space (2256 sq. ft. ), beautiful country views, yet not far from all things Centerville. With three bedrooms, 2 full baths, a wood-burning fireplace (of course!), the open floor plan makes for great entertaining as well as flexible space for dining, working, or chilling. The loft is perched on the upper level with an eye on the happenings below and settling into a book! The home is heated with an oil-fired boiler and cooled with whole house fan, which uses thermal-mass cooling for "green" air conditioning and improves the air quality. All new appliances have just been installed, the front "roof" (which is also the siding) is two years old and the back is just six years old. The 2 car garage, or boat house, will need some work. There are various fences on the property and a gate that provides security. This property is a delight, someone's dream home and in many ways offers idyllic rustic living and easy maintenance. We can't wait for you to see it! Call or text Elizabeth Henley at 765-993-2940, Anne at 765-967-4421 or James at 765-993-3040 for your personal tour.
