Description

This property is offered for sale directly by the owner. For Sale By Owner homes, also known as FSBOs, can be a good buying opportunity, because the owner will save up to 6% when there are no brokers involved in the transaction. This leaves more room for price negotiation and potential buyer savings.

This listing is NOT a foreclosure. The property is the star of the show here. If you'd rather be outdoors; you'll love being outdoors on this 12.62 acres of premium ground. It's bordered by Dempsey Creek on the East and crossed by a second tiny, but, crystal clear, spring fed streamlet. Periodically the beaver move in and engineer a pond or a split or a meander which slows the creek, allowing water to seep into the aquifer. The landscaping includes a raised bed garden featuring established asparagus, strawberry, raspberry and perennial flower beds. There is a 72' by 25' hay shed that provides lots of undercover storage. The water from the well is cold and delicious. However, it is the intangibles_ a pair of bald eagles circling overhead, the wind sloughing through the evergreens, a big bull moose hurrying through the meadow, sandhill cranes performing their mating dance in the pasture, the colors of wild and naturalized flowers bursting through the grass in the spring, the powerful perfume of the Pink Lemonade honeysuckle on a warm summer morning, the birdsong that awakens you from a sweet dream, silence so profound that you can hear a bug crawling through the lawn_ these little moments of pure bliss make this place magical. The 6" by 12" "D" log home is a marvel of solid construction and efficiency. It is easy to heat with either the wood stove or the propane furnace with supplemental electric heaters in the basement. It's cooled naturally in the summer by trapping cool air during the night and circulating it through the house in the afternoon. There are several feet of insulation in the attic. The sub-floor and the roof are built with 3/4" plywood. The custom hickory cabinetry has dove-tailed drawer fronts. There are lots of closets and storage space. The open floor plan brings families together. Best of all, you'll appreciate the feeling of safety and privacy you'll experience here. The generally quiet and unassuming neighbors live at a good distance. There is very light traffic on the gravel access road. The lowing of cattle in the pasture across the valley will be a marker of the change of seasons in the spring and fall. If living in nature is your vision; this may be your dream.
