Once you start down the lane to this expansive 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath ranch you will soon realize you are not at a typical home. The parklike setting, the very nice landscaping, the large front lawn as well a huge back yard you know you are in one of the most isolated private settings in The Galena Territory. This property offers 2 large lots with a total acreage of over 5 acres. The property has a number of it's own nature trails for your own private hiking and walking right in your own back yard. There are many unique features to this house such as: Multi level decks with sitting areas, flagstone patios, screened porch and 4 season room with its own heater, and a pond/waterfall in the front yard. The entryway is enclosed with the use of patio doors. As you walk in the front door you will notice the post and beam construction of this home. The main and original area of the home is a Timberpeg home. If you are not familiar with this type of construction it is a combination of traditional and post and beam construction. The post and beams give the home a log cabin look and feel but yet the tradition construction techniques and finishes are applied so you get the best of both worlds. If you have heard the expression "it's built like a barn", well, it is. This makes for a very solid house. On the main level you will be first notice the sunken living room with a floor to ceiling limestone wood burning fireplace. The sunken living room ads to coziness of the place when friends and family gather. The kitchen has been upgraded with stainless steel appliances and Corian counter tops. The dining area is large enough to entertain a nice size group on those special occasions. The master bedroom is huge with over 400 sq. ft. It has plenty of windows and a skylight. It has 2 small closets but also has a large walk-in cedar lined closet as well a large master bath with whirlpool, shower and one vanity sink and one pedestal sink with another vanity sink and granite countertop in the closet area. There are 3 windows up high in this area that are remotely controlled to open and close. These Window will automatically close went it gets too humid or start to rain. In the home office area there has been added built-in bookcases and a desk made from an oak tree that was on the property. There is a vault/ gun safe in the lower level bedroom/family room which could easy be converted to a closet. One of the main floor bedrooms has a Murphy Bed in the closet area. Did you notice the full 3 car garage. There is also a large work shop area in front of the 2 car garage. The work shop has it's own heating and cooling system, ceramic tile floor and 1/2 bath. All the bedrooms should pass for rental licensing. The septic system will need to be upgraded for rental licensing but is in good working condition now and has been maintained and pumped on a scheduled basis. The Driveway will pass for rental licensing. This home could be a 7 bedroom home with some minor adjustments and upgrades. A new roof was installed in 2017 with a transferable warrantee to new owners.
