Minutes from local amenities. SECONDARY BUILDING: Built in 2014, this impressive 28' x 36' secondary building features a pine board-and-batten exterior and quality energy-efficient construction. It includes a concrete slab with R20 insulation on a 6 foot deep frost wall, 11", R42 Rockwool insulated walls, R66 roof insulation, 10-foot main floor walls, cathedral ceilings, metal roof, quality wood windows, and electrical baseboard/convector heating. The building offers excellent versatility with a loft area, cold storage space, and durable construction. The interior and exterior will be cleared, leaving the building with bare walls.

The approximately 50' x 60' fenced garden includes custom gates, irrigation piping, raised garden beds, an in-ground garden area, arbors, trellises, compost bins, rain barrels, and storage areas. The garden features asparagus, raspberry canes, rhubarb, culinary herbs, perennial flowers, and mature plantings. The garden has historically produced approximately 700-1,000 lbs of vegetables per season. Garden inclusions are offered as is and require ongoing maintenance due to natural elements. SOLAR BACKUP SYSTEM: The property includes a solar energy collection and emergency backup system installed between 2022 and 2023, featuring Renogy inverter/charger, lithium batteries, charge controllers, and solar panels. The system supports essential elements during power outages, including the well pump, sump pump, refrigerator, heat pump, and selected outlets.
