If you're looking for a quality built home situated on a picturesque lot surrounded by nature, look no further and be prepared to fall in love! This three bedroom, two and a half bath home with tons of charm and character features Brown County sandstone, a stocked one acre pond with floating dock visible from the kitchen, multiple decks and a screened porch with breathtaking wooded views in every direction, an oversized two car garage, and a detached workshop/art studio with concrete slab floor, skylights, heat, shelving galore, and a small deck off the back. The home was designed by the late Gerald Boyce, a well known local artist and professor of art history. Mr. Boyce brought his creativity and love of nature into every space, both inside and out. All three bedrooms are located on the main level as well as the laundry room and two full baths. Upstairs was once the art studio and so much potential awaits the new buyer for this space. The lower level is partially finished with a family room, recreation room, workout/craft room, and half bath (which is plumbed for a shower). There's also TONS of space for storage, canning, etc. as the unfinished portion of the lower level has a sink and the space to let your imagination run wild. At the entrance to the property there's a fenced organic garden belonging to the original owner's family and they would love to share their garden with the new buyer. Bird enthusiasts will enjoy the over 115 species that have been counted and enjoyed by the late Mrs. Boyce. For those who love to fish, the pond is stocked with sunfish, bluegill, and large mouth bass. All of this PLUS HIGH SPEED FIBER OPTIC INTERNET OFFERED BY SCI REMC. Points of Interest: The property has been subdivided within the past year and all property corners are staked. The first few feet of the entrance to the property is part of a wildlife nature preserve and is owned by the original owner's family who reside on the same road. The sellers are leaving the firewood that is nicely split and stacked between the workshop and the house. They also plan to convey the washer and dryer with the sale at no additional cost. All shelving and window treatments also stay.
