Nestled in the middle of 14 1/2 peaceful acres sits this welcoming 3 bedroom 2 bath earth contact home. The living room is open to the large kitchen and dining area, and has skylights for added natural lighting, a cozy wood burning stove and a coffee/wet bar. The kitchen has miles of countertop space, loads of cabinets and a large kitchen island. Enjoy cooking that special meal with room for everyone to gather together and celebrate whatever the occasion may be. The dining area opens to the sun room, complete with a 7 person hot tub and atrium. There is another family room that makes an ideal workout room, hobby room, or just another place to spread out...the possibilities are limitless. It opens to the large screened-in porch, complete with a porch swing, where you can relax and listen to the sounds of nature. Separating these two living areas is a room that is currently used as an office that has additional cabinetry, more counter space and a sink. The master bedroom has 2 sliding glass doors that open to a deck that looks out onto the open yard. The laundry room has additional room and shelving for storage. Outside, the detached 45' x 47' 3-car garage can manage all of your vehicles, toys, and yard equipment. It also has a loft and a separate 11' x 19' insulated workshop. There is another barn suitable for livestock and additional equipment storage. It has 2 stalls and connects to fenced and cross fenced pens that currently house goats and sheep. The sellers have made a 1/2 mile walking trail in the woods with several trail heads and have enjoyed the wildlife (check out the trail cam photos in the pictures), and have had great findings of morel mushrooms and other edible fungi. The path has several foot bridges over the wet-weather stream that runs through the property. There is an oil/gas lease (2 working wells) that provided an income for them in excess of $7000 for 2022. Close (1/2 mile) to pavement...what a beautiful place to live!
