About this home

Whether you're looking for a full time or mountain get-away home, this well-maintained home could be the one. It's a 3 bedroom, 1 bath with a full unfinished basement that has plenty of ceiling height so finishing off the basement for more living space could easily be accomplished. The basement has bath plumbing in place & a woodstove for heat is already there to get you started to easily double the square footage. Presently some of this basement space is used as a workshop, & the laundry area is here also. Back on the main level you'll find the pretty original hardwood floors in the living room & 3 bedrooms. The kitchen has lots of cabinets & counter space to please the cook, & the refrigerator, stove & dishwasher are just 1 year old. There's easy access to the home via a state paved road. A circular driveway in front is convenient & gives plenty of parking space for you & guests. A deck/front patio, also just 1 year old, expands the full length of the home (40'). There's a GREAT back yard, too, open & flat with just enough shade for the kids to cool off after hard play. Maintenance for this home will be easy with vinyl siding exterior & a metal roof that was installed in 2011.
