Escape to the country! Enjoy the spectacular southern view of a wooded valley from this hilltop home. Wildlife abounds on this selectively cut hardwood 31-acre property, with deer, turkey, ruffed grouse, fox, and songbirds. Established woods roads encourage walking, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing. Snowmobile and four-wheeler trails are accessible with no trailering needed. The open plan home has reclaimed post and beam features and large windows that frame a peaceful landscape in all directions. It boasts an entry sunroom and an eat-in kitchen with custom cabinets, a large island, and a walk-in pantry/laundry. The south-facing living room is bathed in sunlight from a wall of windows that presents a panoramic view of the front field and valley. On winter days, the living room's Vermont Castings wood stove will keep you toasty. First-floor living reveals a bedroom with sliding door access to the home's large deck and is attached to a full bathroom with custom cabinetry and a new, tiled, walk-in shower. A beech and cherry stairway leads to two second-floor bedrooms, a sitting area, and a full bath. Add your personal touches to make this your dream home. Outside storage for your vehicles and recreational ''toys'' is plentiful. A detached main garage has two bays, a work area, an inside/outside covered dog kennel (or carport), a 100-amp breaker box, and a second floor with secondary living space potential. A fully insulated second garage features two bays (including a drive through), a separate storage area, and a dedicated 100-amp breaker box. A metalbestos chimney is ready for your woodstove. The three-year-old, 12' x 24' Shelter Logic garage has a wood-beam foundation and graded-rock floor. This property is the perfect opportunity to own a spacious home with ''Location! Location! Location!'' as its headline. It is a private paradise that will have you smiling every day. . MOTIVATED SELLER.
