Property Description

3 bedrooms, 1 bath wood sided, 1400 sq.ft. farmhouse with room for additional rooms (including an extra bathroom) sits above the valley as a hidden retreat among beautiful views of the surrounding mountains. The gated driveway leads to this hilltop home with an attached carport, fenced 25' x 30' raised bed garden and several raised beds along the side yard, a greenhouse, electricity running to the mini barn and an adjacent heated hen house with exterior laying boxes. There is also covered firewood storage. The yard is fenced for children and pets. There is a buck stove in the main living area as back-up for the heat pump. There is a 300 gallon rainwater collector in case the electricity goes out and water can't be pumped from the private well (public water is available). The well has a whole home filter which is self-purging. The bathroom has recently been remodeled with a large glass walk-in shower added. Floors are covered with luxury vinyl plank flooring in the main living area and a large bedroom, carpet in bedroom 2 and upscale linoleum in the 8' x 10' pantry and kitchen. The laundry/linen storage area is located near the primary bedroom. Owner has installed a new stainless refrigerator and gas range. The second floor is completely open but could easily be partitioned off and part of the open space above the staircase can be floored, adding additional space for a full bathroom and 1 or 2 bedrooms if desired. A covered 8' x 57' front porch runs the entire length of the home and is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the views. Beneath this porch is a space for storing potatoes, pumpkins etc. There is also a 6'x8' porch just off the kitchen and pantry area. This is the perfect place to raise your own food, enjoy the privacy, and not have to worry about electricity going out or having to run to the grocery store. The raised beds and remaining yard are set up to require less work on the 1.319 acre wooded tract. The location is perfect for solar panels if you want to be off grid. The railroad track above this property is mainly used as a switchback and is seldom used. No drive-by as gate is locked!
