Description

Imagine "home" is a secluded sanctuary within the most desired location in town. Turn up the drive to discover this unexpectedly beautiful setting and wonderfully appealing home set in the foreground of long mountain views. The protected landscape offers expansive level lawn, fruit trees, berry bushes & gardens, areas for party & play and a haven for pets & hummingbirds. It's a fitting environment for this delightfully unconventional split-level house. Its unique design offers more main level room & greater charm. A proper foyer accesses a distinctive LR highlighted by a bow window & vaulted ceiling. A beautiful mountain/sky view fills the LR & DR, which features a double French door to a remarkable enclosed side porch. The lovingly renovated kitchen features artfully crafted cabinets; bead board ceiling & copper sink, plus a seated buffet bar with double windows overlooking the scenic back yard. Step down into a comfortable FR, with bow window and an adjoining office. A rich wood staircase leads up to the 3 BRs & bath, each with an engaging view. Features include arched doorways, wood floors, crown molding, wainscotting & woodstove/chimney. The oversized attached garages are a real advantage. With many improvements completed, this potential-packed home is ready for the next steps in its joyful rejuvenation. Convenient to the exceptional town center, schools, dining & recreation. Walk to Meckauer & Bennett Memorial Park, walking trails, dog parks, picnic and play areas.
