Not far from town, a green oasis awaits the person who is looking for an everyday retreat or a weekend get-away. Dream catchers hanging from the thick log beams speak to the possibilities of life in this nature-enveloped home. You can tune out the TV because the sounds and scenes of nature will intrigue and relax you. Wander from lawns and pastures to timber to a secluded lake that a painter would find inspiring. The property sits on 27 acres and with every turn the scenery changes. The 25 varieties of trees are striking all year long but reserve the fall for a blazing display of color. Naturalist flower gardens pop up everywhere. And one of the most interesting features is the rockscaping. Hundreds of rocks on the land were discovered, unearthed and re-purposed into one-of-a-kind rock gardens. There is even a large fenced-in area for children and pets to roam in safety. The heart of this home centers around the majestic whole house heating fireplace which connects to the furnace. Imagine the conversations the embers will encourage. The large wood beams overhead are just the tip of the sturdy construction. No ordinary log home, this estate is built according to the highest standards of conventional building. With 2 x 6 construction and quadruple layers of insulation, the winds can blow and the storms can come down and you will barely notice. The attached four-car garage is completely heated. Cooking for a crowd will be organized and convenient in the large custom kitchen. Move from the kitchen to the dining room to the four seasons room and on to the north deck and patio area for perfect entertaining flow. The first floor main office with a separate entrance brings a new definition to working at home. As you look down on the main floor from the balcony, the skylights will pour light in on you. You'll find another bedroom suite with its own private deck. A second spacious office makes the upper level a productive open work space. The fire will also be burning downstairs as you challenge friends to a friendly game of pool. Another complete kitchen makes the level perfect for entertaining or for houseguests. With two bedroom suites and an outside patio, the living space is complete. The home spills over to the wrap-around log deck and its possibilities for enjoyment. Start your day with breakfast and quiet conversation. Slip away at mid-day for a few minutes of renewal. Later, invite a group for cocktails. You'll overlook a sampling of all the grounds offer. A completely outfitted shop for the weekend tinkerer, crafter, car enthusiast as well as the serious workman is part of the package. Every last nail will stay. The Morton building has a bathroom and large storage space, large enough for the full-sized tractor.
