Toby says, it's like brand new! That's right Toby, new windows, new paint inside and out! It's been redone from the studs in! And it's move in ready! Log sided, tucked off the road amid some tall trees for wonderful privacy. The deck is only about 6 years old and now wraps around to both exits! Another bonus here, one of these exits opens to a fenced dog yard! Let's go inside, vaulted ceiling keeps the living room light and airy. Mini split keeps house cool in summer and warm in winter! And new windows means the cool stays in and the cold stays out! Kitchen sits in the middle of the house separating the 2 bedrooms and there is an updated 3/4 bath. Need a bit more room? Drop the ladder and head up to the loft! Keep as extra sleeping space (did we mention there is a 3 bedroom septic installed just 3 years ago) or some inside storage. There's still some summer left. Toby thinks you should be spending sitting out on the deck. As the evenings start cooling down, gather around the firepit, make S'mores or Toby says how about fire grilled steak! Nice level lot has mature trees screening you from the road and the neighbors! Back of lot is mostly wooded, how about some random trails out there? ATV riding perhaps? Sellers are ready to move on and you could be here as fast as the title company can get the paperwork done! Toby is sure this one will go fast, he says don't hesitate, schedule your showing now! RV on the property is available for purchase, though not included in this price or will be removed. Property is gated, please wait to go in for agent. Sellers have dogs when there.
