The ultra-high natural-beam ceiling immediately catches your attention as you enter the main family room. A wall of windows extending more than 2 stories is next to catch your eye. They give you a view out over a wood deck that wraps around three sides of the home providing a great view to a good sized pond and a beautiful countryside filled with wildlife. The next focal point is a one-of-a-kind natural stone wood-burning fireplace. This area is open to the kitchen and two separate dining areas. Flooring in the home is a perfect blend of gorgeous hardwood, carpet and very appropriate tile selections that were just recently updated. The main floor and upper level walls are all exposed logs. Also, the garage has a newly painted ceiling and has heated floors. There's one very cozy bedroom on the main level. It has its own en suite bathroom with dual sinks and tub/shower. There are also his and hers closets in the bedroom. Finally, on this floor you"ll find a combination mud room and laundry room. It also includes a sink and toilet. Up the stairs you'll discover the loft bedroom. This special room has a view through the exposed beams and on to the outside. There's also a full bath with dual sinks, jetted tub and shower. The lower level has just been remodeled with all new carpet. It includes a huge recreation room , 3 bedrooms and a full bath with dual sinks. The walls on this level are a bit more conventional with a combination of dry wall and knotty pine. Sliding doors open to a spacious concrete patio that overlooks one of two stocked ponds. While appearing to be a vintage log home, it includes all of today's modern conveniences. The current owner says she'll miss the incredible views including an abundance of wildlife and the simple pleasures of seeing the sun and moon rising in the sky or watching storms as they pass.
