For Sale By Owner

Two story house, 1996, and garage, 2000, on ten wooded acres, ten minutes from CdA and a mile from the lake, over well-maintained country roads. Includes Italian stone floors, 9  ft. ceilings, and an open deck outside the master bedroom! The main floor, 1220 sq. ft. with 9 ft. ceilings, houses the kitchen/great room, two pantries, a utility room, laundry hookups, master bedroom with large walk-in closets, and full bath with jetted tub. The upstairs, 1220 sq. ft., with a full bath installed, is unfinished. It has the potential for two LARGE bedrooms. The construction is post and beam, allowing full useable space and creating 11 ft. ceilings at the peak. The walls, roof, and main floor are constructed of R-Control panels. The exterior walls are finished with steel siding. The roof has been redone in metal with recessed screws, Summer, 2008.  There are Marvin wood windows throughout. A ground source water-to-water heat pump system flows into heating coils on the main floor, covered with Italian stone. As a result of this well-insulated construction, the utility bill (electricity & heating) averaged $52.86/month over a 64-month period. Appliances included with the house are range/oven, microwave, refrigerator, dishwasher, water filtering system, air-to-air exchanger, and three low energy electric hot water heaters (two are backup for heat pump system). There is a wood burning stove in the great room and a Honda em5000S generator, wired to service the house (lights, microwave, refrigerator, freezers, well, water from storage tank) in case of power failure. The 576 sq. ft. detached, steel-sided, frame construction, garage/shop has one centered car door, and is surrounded by an area wired to be a shop. The attic of the garage/shop is built to hold weight, a perfect place for storage. The crawl space under the main house is 54 feet deep, again, a place for storage. There are two domestic wells and a spring on the property. The 100 deep well was developed up to 2 gpm (natural filtering system established by running the water slowly, gradually increasing the gpm flow) over a three-month period. Because this well pumps into a 2100-gallon underground, cement storage tank, it is sufficient and has served, as is, since 1998; it could be developed up to a higher gpm rate if desired. The 365 deep, low-production well is used to water the plants around the house. A natural spring, at the low end of the property, pumps into an 1100-gallon surface storage tank, at the high end of the property. This water is then dripped by surface water lines for watering. After selective logging in 1993, we planted hundreds of indigenous trees (ponderosa pine, tamarack, white pine), a number of oak and maple, a flowering plum, a hazelnut, a crab apple, a cherry tree, and lots of cedar & black walnut trees in cages to protect them from the deer, and Norway & blue spruce along two of the property lines. Misc.: garden area, RV parking, septic sewer system, exterior lighting above garage, MKI fire protection district. Financial Information: No assumable mortgage.
