New ListingNestled into the hillside on 1.76 private acres, this energy-efficient 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath home offers peaceful country living with beautiful surrounding views-yet remains close to everything you need. Built into a hill for natural insulation and unique character, the home uses solar-assisted technology and combines radiant heating with forced air for comfortable, efficient living year-round. The main floor is fully handicap-accessible, making everyday living easy and inclusive. A heated two-car garage connects directly to a shop, ideal for projects, storage, or hobbies. Recent upgrades elevate the property further: a new wider garage door with opener, tar-and-chip driveway, updated cement patio and fencing, refinished kitchen cabinets with a refreshed kitchen layout, new gas range (gas line already installed), repainted interiors, pressure-washed exterior, and a new large shed. The well water is excellent-tasting with a softener already installed-no monthly water bill. All appliances convey, including a Bosch dishwasher. Some beautiful furniture pieces may also be available with the sale. A potential fourth bedroom currently serves as an office, and central vacuum possibilities. Propane is on a convenient FS tank lease. Low property taxes, solid recent improvements, and a thoughtful, energy-conscious design create a rare opportunity: a unique hillside retreat that feels secluded yet practical, efficient yet comfortable, and ready for its next chapter. Ideal for those seeking space, views, accessibility, and lower ongoing costs without sacrificing convenience or quality. Schedule a showing today and turn your Real Estate Dreams into Reality!
