LARGE CUSTOM HOME ON 1.5 ACRES OF COUNTRY!!! Imagine having a home with the space to live your life your way! This home is for you! Custom built by the owner in 2002, you will enjoy no HOA fees, plenty of space inside and outside, extra storage outbuildings, and quality construction for your long-term enjoyment. The first floor boasts a large custom kitchen with upgrades, 1st floor handicap accessible half-bath, a large "open-space" living room, dining area, and kitchen combo, formal dining room, foyer flex room, and home office. An expansive outdoor deck extends from the dining area with brand new Trex composite decking and railing for a lifetime of use. Focusing on the kitchen for a minute, you will find custom built solid wood oak cabinets by a Littlestown-based Cabinet shop--Elite Wood Classics. Extras include rope moulding built into the crown moulding, roll-out shelving, 2 special spice racks, an appliance garage with the roll-up door, roll-out hidden trash can area, and plenty of well-thought storage throughout. Appliances are included with a $3,500.00 allowance to choose your own! Moving on to the second floor, we find it accommodates with plenty of space to feature a huge master suite which includes massive "his and hers" walk-in closets, a spacious bathroom with a whirlpool tub and large shower, and even a private 10' x 10' deck. There are a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms on the second floor. Each bedroom has a walk-in closet with custom solid-wood shelving. One bedroom (besides the master) even includes its own full bathroom for additional privacy and comfort. The laundry area is at the end of the hall on the 2nd floor to minimize steps. As we look at the Basement, we notice attention to useable space and maximum efficiency. All exterior basement walls are quality, pre-insulated "Superior" walls. These walls are factory built with insulation and wood studs built in to provide ease of finish and extra R-value in insulation. The factory walls have had R-19 insulation added to provide a minimum R-21 insulation value in the basement. The Basement is mostly finished with weathered barn wood for wainscoating and an unfinished area that works well for a workshop, storage, or craft area. Other benefits include extra closets with pre-built shelving for storage, games, extra kitchen pans and cookware, and seasonal items. There is no excessive moisture in the basement. It also includes a wood stove which has been effective in heating most of the house in the past. The Attic had about 12" of blown-in insulation added about 10 years ago which brought the insulation R-value to over R-40. As we move to the exterior, you will notice plenty of open space as well as some additional outbuildings that are handy for the extra toys and lawn equipment. There is even a well-built treehouse. Both outbuildings have electric to them on an electric service that is separate from the main house. Side note: The larger outbuilding was the original house on the property "back in the day". It is cement block construction and does have its own well and septic that worked when its use was terminated over 10 years ago. This is a home built to provide a lifetime of enjoyment and a property to provide the space to love life! WELCOME HOME!!! View this listing at: http://thechrissiebarrickteam.com/mls=PAYK2096084
