Hear the rushing water from your front porch! Constructed with heavy timbers, the architecture is like nothing else built today yet it features things we hope to find in a modern home - hardwood floors, high ceilings, spacious rooms, granite countertops and blazing fast internet. With almost 500 feet of waterfront, a full cosmetic, plumbing and electrical refurbishment has been done during the past dozen years or so. The property is mostly flat. No steep climb, access from a state maintained road. Have you been thinking about becoming more self-sufficient? Included are nearly 30 apple trees, a grape arbor, and a huge, sunny garden spot. There is plenty of land to keep a horse, chickens or some livestock and no HOA. Fishermen come from all over to fish Big Helton Creek as it is one of the top trout streams in North America! There are several flower gardens surrounding the house each with differing bloom times for fresh cut flowers! This home is "Romantic". Surrounded by hills, streams and forests, it has long balconies and railings, gas log fireplaces, beautiful poplar floors, a chestnut staircase and a formal parlor with fireplace and handmade wainscot all done in gorgeous oak. The island kitchen is for serious chefs with solid wood cabinets, granite counter tops, and stainless GE Cafe' appliances. Heating and cooling are provided by mini-split systems and a hydronic radiant system under the floor and in the baseboards. The hot water for this system is provided by either a wood-fired outdoor furnace or a propane-fired boiler. Either of these provide endless hot water to your showers and sinks. Should the power go out in winter, propane gas logs will keep you toasty warm without needing electricity. The large metal garage has space for 4 cars plus lots of storage space on a dry, concrete floor. This home is special. You may not want to leave it but if you do, there is plenty to enjoy in the area. Grocery and shopping are available only 15-25 minutes away.
