Cute 1 BR cottage (2BR Septic) sits on beautiful, level (flat), open (not fenced) pasture-10 ACRES! Oversized garage/workshop with electricity to it, that's detached. A shed for storage or yard tools. You can either live in this home forever and put a fence up for your horses/farm animals with a nice barn; or live in this home while you build on the back side of the land (*always check zoning and permitting) then rent this out or have for family and friends! It's not often you get a piece of land like this in the mountains with a cute cottage included for this price! (The seller doesn't want to leave, but needs to move back home to be with family. They are the original owners/builder of the home. The living area is not in HLA section, due to the only heat source being a nice stove in the living room that is propane - the seller states when it's going it will "run you out of there, it's so hot"!) Call with questions or for a showing! Professional pics and drone pics will be taken 5/11.
