About This Home

As of December 2024

AN OUTDOOR ENTHUSIAST DREAM COME TRUE! Stunning and remarkable rustic cabin on 3.03 acres nestled between the mountains with a FISHING STREAM and 2 additional parcels of land all totaling more than 66 acres (36 acres are WOODED with steep terrain). The cabin was built in 2013, has vaulted ceilings throughout and is equipped with a heat pump, central air, baseboard heat and a wood stove in the basement for chilly winter nights. The bedroom has an attached closed in deck with a steaming hot tub just waiting to be used by it's new owner. There's an adjacent cabin like custom built dwelling that's insulated, has electricity and half bath with carport that's perfect for overnight guests or entertaining. The property also has a huge restored barn and ORIGINAL HOMESTEAD (used as a hunting cabin) still in place with a wood stove for your hunting buddies who want a "roughing it" hunting experience. Parcels 2 and 3 are in forest preservation status so property taxes are very reasonable.
