Enjoy the peace and quiet of country living where the wonders and natural beauties of nature abound, with city convenience located five minutes from downtown Flushing. Relax and enjoy your surroundings in a lovely English Colonial on 3.06 acres for $189,900.
The home is completely updated and newer kitchen appliances stay, so bring your fishing pole and enjoy the gorgeous, oblong shaped pond that is stocked with plenty of bass and bluegill, and positioned for your viewing pleasure right out the back door. Your kids will love swimming in the spring-fed pond, and will have a lot of fun with the floating dock that can be paddled from one end of the pond to the other. You will love the convenience of watering your flowers and vegetables from the pond with the pump that also provides a lovely fountain for your backyard enjoyment. Behind the pond you will see a babbling creek that is lined with many bulbs, perennials, and wildflowers that adds to the overall park-like effect the backyard offers. You will enjoy eating the fresh raspberries, rhubarb, and strawberries that can be found in the spring, and the fresh apples, pears, and nectarines that can be found in the fall.
On the inside of the house there are many mirrors and large windows which give the house a bright, roomy effect. There are four bedrooms upstairs and a large full bathroom. The master bedroom has its own full bathroom, and is graced with a gorgeous, attached sunroom that offers a majestic view of the pond, the farm field behind the home, and the different varieties of wildlife that visit regularly. Downstairs there is a pantry style kitchen that offers beautiful Grabil cabinets and island with many extra features, lovely Surrell countertops, and a custom kitchen table to match. The large sliding door and the full wall mirror surrounding the dining area provides a good view of the outdoors, as well as making the kitchen appear very bright and roomy. There is a full bathroom on the first floor, and a spacious first floor laundry room that is a real bonus; there is plenty of space for folding and hanging clothes, and the cupboards are perfect for storing your cleaning supplies - which adds to the extensive storage offered by this home. This home offers plenty of room to roam, inside and out. The living room is spacious and has a large window that makes the room bright and cheerful, and there is also a cozy family room with a fireplace on the west end of the house.
On the east end of the home there is a huge Florida room that features a wood stove surrounded with a rock wall constructed of fieldstones from the property, knotty pine walls and cathedral ceiling, and new Anderson windows; completed in 2003. The cement patio outside of the Florida room is great for lounging and entertaining. The home has a full, unfinished basement with a waterproofing system installed by Everdry of Saginaw, winter 2001. Everdry guarantees their system for the lifetime of the structure, and this guarantee is transferable to the new owner(s). There is a 2-car, attached garage with cabinets for additional storage, and a chicken coop in the backyard.
The home offers energy-efficient hot water heating with five operational zones that can be regulated separately, and an efficient attic air conditioning unit that was installed recently. An additional zone is available in case you should care to heat the garage. There is a generator bypass that runs the most critical 10 circuits in the home in the event of a power outage; complete with a Homelite 4400 generator that has, fortunately, never been used; but is ready to go in case an emergency does arise.
My husband and I hate to leave, but are quickly approaching retirement, and the time has come to move on and make room for a new family that will fill the rooms of this lovely home once again. I feel very confident that the new owner(s) will fall in love with the place as my family did. We all agree that this is the nicest, most enjoyable home we have ever lived in! It truly is like having your own little peace of heaven!
