If you are looking for a little privacy, try 315 acres on for size! One feature of this property is the owner-constructed 28' x 36' raised bungalow, built like a fort with a half-wrap-around deck. The "cabin-in-the-woods" interior style boasts pine ceilings and hand-crafted kitchen and bedroom cabinetry.
Two roomy bedrooms, a laundry room and a 3-piece bathroom are located opposite the equally-roomy living room and kitchen, with no space wasted on hallways. Heating is by wood-burning stove located in the unspoiled basement, with electric baseboard heating as backup. Another feature of the property is the potential to raise some animals.
The owner once kept beef cattle, pigs and chickens. Most fencing and outbuildings remain available for that purpose, including a tool shed and an outhouse. Several small fields on the property grow hay.
A sizeable vegetable garden is near the house, as is a large dog run, a covered barbeque spit and a seating area under a shady oak tree. A deep (386') drilled well provides plenty of water. The septic system was replaced two years ago as if it were for a 3-bedroom home.
Another feature of this property is the trail system. Trails branch out from the house leading to four ponds and three small fields. A trail crosses Hebert Creek, which runs through the width of the property near the house.
The owner is a fastidious woodsman who hand-selects timber for his use, which is currently for firewood. A drive through the trails is like a drive through a park because the owner has trimmed many lower branches. Another feature of the property is the fact that it is a wildlife mecca.
In the southeast portion of the property, moose tracks are visible everywhere you turn. A hunting blind is located in one of the fields. The OFSC rail trail runs through the southwest portion of the property.
Bring your updating ideas, your animals, children, friends, tools, ATVs and snowmobiles to this amazing retreat. This property is offered for sale at $699,000.
