Here's what you call a "big" 10 acres. Why? Because it packs so many special areas into a small package, each with its own distinctive vibe: there's the large pond with a tucked-away writer's cabin; the ridgetop pasture with turnout shed & long expansive views; the smaller fenced areas for animals, including a small barn w/ concrete floors; the woods with large trees, wildflowers & wildlife. And all on just 10 acres! The house is a nearly-completed 3-story log cabin, with a lofted open floor plan on the main level that bathes the LR and kitchen with sunlight. The main level also includes a bedroom and full bath. The upper level boasts a huge loft, perfect for office/playroom, and a sizeable BR with hardwood floors & a walk-in closet. Lower level features a big foyer, a second LR that could easily be converted to a third BR or workshop, plus gobs of storage space, PLUS a utility room with w/ d and utility sink. There ARE tasks to finish here, hence the low price: logs need to be chinked and finished; minor drywall and trim installed; some flooring needs to be finished; the garage needs siding; and more. So pack your tools, bring your dreams and vision, and get to work having fun!
