About this home

Room with a view, you say? How about views from every room? This lovely, more than lovely bi-level sits atop a knoll with panoramic views on every side! Quiet, quiet setting on over 4 cleared acres. Open the front door to be greeted by an inviting foyer leading upstairs to a modern eat-in kitchen with separate dining area and formal dining room. This level also features spacious, bright living room with propane fireplace and a spacious master bedroom suite with large closets and jack n jill master bath. Entirely finished lower level features two bedrooms, a large family room with free standing coal stove, laundry room and full bath. Walk through the large, enclosed breezeway with loads of storage into the enormous six car garage with one bay large enough for substantial camper (or truck). As if that's not enough, we'll throw in a huge rear deck an a detached two car garage (and room for a pony). Properties like this don't come along very often.

R-C

Rural Conservation District

This district contains much of the farmland within the Township as well as steep slopes covered with woodland. The purpose of this district to maintain the rural character of this sparsely developed area predominantly in farmland and woodland, to encourage the preservation of the agricultural and woodland resources of the Township, and to discourage intensive development in those areas which have severe limitations for on-lot sewage treatment and will not be served by a sanitary sewer system in the near future and those areas which have limitations to building because of such factors as steep slope and shallow depth to bedrock. It is also the intent of this district to encourage the preservation of the upper watershed areas of a number of watercourses and the floodplains which adjoin the watercourses, thus protecting stream quality and minimizing adverse effects of increased stormwater runoff and erosion and sedimentation which could occur if intensive development of the wooded slopes above the watercourses took place.
