Description

Discover tranquility in this stunning Swiss Chalet quietly nestled into mother earth, surrounded by heirloom fruit trees, cedars, and a babbling brook. This unique and charming property offers a cozy and inviting ambiance, with the added benefit of being energy efficient. We invite you to step inside, greeted by a warm and inviting interior featuring beautiful exposed beams, a massive granite fireplace with a wood-fired pizza oven, and a "cooks kitchen." The kitchen is updated while keeping the old-world charm of the Chalet, featuring a gas range, pot filler, and custom hand-made cabinets. The kitchen is open to the dining area, spacious enough to seat numerous family and friends. Upstairs is a large primary bedroom with wide plank floors, a granite fireplace, a full bathroom with tub/shower combo and double vanity, and two smaller bedrooms. Also downstairs, a full bathroom with shower/laundry and a living room with two seating areas. The Chalet boasts a unique and ultra-cozy color pallet that many buyers may find refreshing in the generic "gray/white" scheme commonly found in today's remodeled homes. A new 580' drilled well replaces the 35' dug well, newer windows, propane on-demand water heater, and the cedar roof is 12-13 years old. The home is set on .92 acres with an additional adjoining lot of 1.85 acres (MLS 170570986, listed at $20,000) available for purchase. Real Estate Licensee Owned. PLEASE NOTE: Offers due by 7pm Monday 5/29. “I have found that it is the small everyday deed of ordinary folks that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love.” J.R.R. Tolkien, The Hobbit
