Unique touches can be found throughout this creative masterpiece including several beautiful stained glass windows, a pull rope to sound a church bell for a doorbell, and the highlight of the interior is an 8 ft patina windmill ceiling fan that not only is a neat aesthetic feature but also designed to push heat out of the vaulted ceiling space and back down into the living level. Inside, the kitchen and living room combo to make a great, open living space that offers modern living with a rustic feel brought out by exposed barnwood beams, barnwood flooring and a cozy wood burning stove. The entire main floor is designed to be handicapped and wheelchair accessible, including a spacious main floor full bath with a walk in shower and also a separate deep, clawfoot tub and main floor laundry.
