About this home

Very updated beautiful log Home near Burntside Lake that is priced to sell. Towering pines adorn the lot and the sale includes an access to the shore of Burntside Lake. Virtually everything is new with an awesome new open floor plan on the main floor with new 3/4 inch oak plank flooring. Main infrastructure items are all new. High efficiency LP furnace, 3 on demand water heaters and central air. Two bedrooms on the upper level, one bedroom is the open area between the steps and master bedroom, and a bonus bedroom built off the garage with heat. All new stainless appliances are negotiable items. This is virtually a new home inside. Nice two car detached garage with the attached sauna and bonus bedroom. Also a wood shed with insulated storage area sealed to keep the little critters out. Off peak electric installed but not heavily used and a very nice wood fire place in the living area that can heat the whole home. Easy access to Van Vac Rd and the near by public landing.
