Private and Perfect - Reduced $10,000! You will love this location. This may be just that cottage that you have dreamed about. Located on a dead end country road and oh-so private. 2 bedrooms and and full bath are located on the 1st level. The 2nd level is accessed by a handcrafted ship's ladder. Notice that the entire 2nd level is totally open. It would make the perfect "away room", gallery, child's playroom and it is perfect for a plethora of storage. Cedar has been used to bring a special warmth to the ceilings in the main room which includes a custom-built island kitchen area. All of the trim boards on the 1st level are done in cedar which has a soft patina. Get away from it all for less. What a nice value. Located just a skip from Johnson Village where you'll find Johnson State College (where you can swim and exercise at the Shape Center) plus many other amenities. For downhill skiing, Johnson is next to Jeffersonville where Smugglers Notch Ski Area is located. This property is combined with owner's personal home and one other property. The town assessor's estimate that the tax bill for this property only will be approximately $2,200.00.
