Spanning 6 Acres+, this one-owner custom cedar home is awaiting the story of its new owner. Tucked near the back half of the property, you and your visiting guests will travel along the long drive, past towering trees that have witnessed countless memories being made to the cedar-built home. As you walk into the home, beyond the foyer, the dining room is a focal feature and is strategically positioned around a solarium and two family/living rooms for all of those big gatherings you are sure to have. You will love the abundance of windows, a feature not to overlook. This is a passive solar-designed home, which is intended to use the sun's energy for heating and cooling without relying on active mechanical systems. The key design focuses on maximizing natural light and warmth by strategically placing windows and optimizing insulation! A kitchen sits just off one of the family rooms and has a separate breakfast spot surrounded by windows overlooking the deck and yard. No detail was overlooked including the large laundry room with not only exterior access, but a walk in pantry as well. A first-floor bedroom or office and full bath offer the perfect option for work life, in-law living or guest visits. A bonus to heating the home, the solarium on the first level can be used for a number of things outside of heating and cooling your home. The large space is a great spot to take in the view, gather some of the suns rays, and grow food! On the second floor, the owner's suite is expansive yet has a quaint cottage feel with a private balcony, double closets and an attached bath. Across a catwalk sit an additional two bedrooms and a full bath. Walk outside and you'll soon find that the possibilities on your land are ENDLESS! Create self-sustained living with your garden outside or inside using the solarium, raise chickens, and build a pole building for a workshop. Surrounded by peaceful nature and views of Jackson Creek, you will never tire of this lifestyle.
