Custom contemporary home on 30 acres of beautiful mature forest, set back from a rural paved road but just 10 minutes or so to Houghton and Hancock. The main living area, or 'living room', might better be described as a 'great room' with a soaring ceiling and elevated views of the property. The gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances and an oversized commercial grade counter is all that separates the cook from those gathered by the fireplace in the living room. Off the living room is a nice sized primary suite and off the kitchen is an entry that leads to a laundry room and half bath. Around the corner is a second bedroom outfitted as an office. Opposite the kitchen and across the living room is an open stairway that leads to the ground level where you'll find a third bedroom presently utilized for guests with a murphy bed cleverly hidden on one wall. Adjacent is a private full bath and off that is the HVAC room. Also accessible at this level is the oversized garage. This home is completely self sufficient with its own solar system and battery backup and gas generator but one could hook up to the grid if one desired, which is at the road. The construction of this home is insulated poured concrete exterior walls with radiant in-floor heat. The house is positioned to take advantage of sunrise and sunset as it applies to energy efficiency. The grounds have a few chicken shelters that will stay and so will the chickens if the new owner would like, as well as a goose or two. A newer John Deere compact diesel tractor with attachments is available for an additional negotiated price.
