Tiny home living on a large scale! The exterior view from the road hides the secrets this property offers. This home has been completely renovated from the ground up with no detail left untouched! The covered, screened front porch provides full privacy for the home, with extra heavy duty screens, your pets will be safe. This porch was made for living! Curl up with a book and hot tea on the daybed swing and throw a log in the baby wood stove when the weather dips. This cottage has a snug bedroom (master on the main) with electric fireplace over the foot of the bed. All furniture is negotiable to remain - the room was designed for this bed. The walk-in closet designed between bedroom and living room is unexpected storage for a small home! Relax and rejuvenate in the steam shower with LED lights, multiple jets and rain-shower or relax in the clawfoot tub! There is a full laundry room right off the bathroom. You'll be snug as a bug with all the walls and roof fully insulated with spray-foam. The new metal roof was professionally installed over the previous composition roof structure, providing so much insulation value. The kitchen has granite counters and large stainless fridge. There is a high-end hotplate, but no existing stove, as Seller lives mostly raw and grows most of her food on the property in the raised garden beds. (Stove can be negotiated for install if desired/needed for appraisal.) French doors lead from the kitchen to over 1300 sf of outdoor living space with covered porches and open decks wrapping around the home. This home is designed to live nearly off-grid, if desired, with it's own well and septic and the firewood surrounding the home is ready to keep you warm. Firewood can be removed if requested. The detached garage/carport/pole barn is 20x40 with enclosed single garage, double carport with height for RV or boat and additional single carport space. The entire back of the property runs along Wards Creek and although deed shows .84 acres, this is calculated (measured) as nearly 1.5 acres of land. The wood fencing and roof installed by American Renovations in 2021, New windows: Low-E, double hung, flip-down to clean, vinyl windows installed 2021, Vinyl French doors with blinds between glass, 2021, Septic inspected and new field lines installed, well pump fully replaced in 2021.No central HVAC.
