Looking for a quiet country home on 1.5 acres? A home with easy to maintain landscaping/yard so you can enjoy more time sitting on your 8'x18' covered porch with ceiling fan or grilling out back on your 20'x16' deck? Look no further!!
The home was built by the previous owner in 2008 with efficiency in mind. He installed a High Efficiency gas furnace and built the home with an open concept floor plan to ensure better heating of the living space. He also insulated the interior walls of the 2nd & 3rd Bedrooms and the 2nd full bath that they share so if your not using them you could close the doors and save money in heating them. These extra steps he put into the home have proven to save us money as we have lived here the past 10 years and I'm sure they can help you save too. The (rented) 500 gallon LP gas tank supplies gas to the following appliances HE furnace, Stove/oven, Dryer and ventless wall heaters in the partially finished basement and finished/insulated garage. With our heat settings in the winter of 70-72 and all the appliances listed above (minus the heater in garage) using LP gas we only went through 1 tank per year at an average cost of $400-650 per fill depending on gas price per gallon and time of year we filled it. Electric bills ran an average of $100-$150 a month. Good Deal Huh??
The homes kitchen has ample cabinets including a center island with pull out shelf style drawers plus regular drawers (includes 3 bar stools) and a deep shelf walk in pantry. All stainless steel appliances will stay with the home. The dining/kitchen/hallway and bathrooms have laminate flooring and the living room and all bedrooms have Berber carpet. The master bedroom (17x12) has an adjoining full bath with a jetted tub and large linen closet. You can access the walk in closet from either the bedroom or bathroom. The 2nd (13'6"x12') and 3rd (12'x13') bedroom and 2nd full bath are on the opposite end of the house and have great closets with organizer systems in them. The half bath and laundry room/cleaning closet are off of the hallway that leads to the garage.
The garage is a 3+ car 896 sq. ft. fully insulated and drywall finished garage that has nice wood cabinets in 3 of the four corners and between the front doors. It has above garage door openers w/remotes. You can access the homes full attic by a steel fold away ladder system in the garage. The home has 2 sheds on the property for more outdoor storage needs.
The full basement is partially finished (no carpet or ceiling tiles) with 2 rooms petitioned off 1 is being used as storage and will include the storage shelves, it also contains the sump pump, sink, electric water heater, HE Furnace, water pressure tank (new 6/2019) and the rented soft water system. The other was used as a playroom for our kids at one time and it does have carpet. You can access the basement from a door in the kitchen or from an outside door off of the back deck. The basement is insulated (minus the storage room) and electric is run and usable and there are lights in the ceiling. A heavy textured wall board has been installed and has been painted. The heat for the basement is supplied by a ventless gas wall heater and if you want it to heat the whole basement just open all doors and it will heat the basement very efficiently.
