Our home is made of bricks that were salvaged from a girls' school in another part of town. Our home has a metal roof, covered front porch, backyard patio, and town water & sewer. Heating is baseboard electric which can be less costly than oil or gas. We're on one of the nicest streets in Woodstock with neighbors who are friendly and helpful. The 1st and 2nd floors have 7 1/2' ceilings with a view of backyard gardens and wildlife. Lots of large trees - magnolia, walnut, riverbirch and more. The small unfinished basement has a concrete floor and room for a workbench. The wooden shed at the back of the property is 12' long, 10' wide, and 10' high. Yearly taxes are $695; insurance is $269.

There's almost no crime in the neighborhood. The police station is 3 1/2 blocks away and the fire station, rescue squad and Sheriff's office is 3 blocks away.
