It also has a warm water circulation system and solar water heating. The house is approximately 3200 SQFT and three stories. Exterior walls are vinyl covered and roof is steel. New installed propane tank (1000gallons), furnace and air-conditioner.

First floor

Spacious front facing kitchen with plenty of cabinet space, granite counter tops including center island and slate like tile floor covering. Large den has a wood stove, which is sufficient to heat the whole house because of the high R factor insulation. The house has satellite hookup for TV and computers. The den has patio door access to lower deck which is low maintenance because of the TREX deck material. The focal points of the living room are its 28ft high ceiling and the large wood burning fireplace which provides warmth and cheer on a cold winter evening. A picture window provides a beautiful view of the wooded ridge to the North. A formal dining room is situated on the front side opposite the kitchen. Laundry room and mud room lead off the den. The latter has a large closet and provides the entry point from the two car garage. Three quarter bath with corian sink and counter top also off the den. Unique oak stairway that splits for separate access to master and guest bedrooms.

Second floor

Extra large high ceiling master bedroom with adjoining walk-in closet and master bath: Jacuzzi tub, 2 sink granite counter top, large corian shower. It has patio door access to large upper deck with low maintenance TREX surface like the deck below. The decks provide the best but by no means the only places from which to enjoy the spectacular views. Thumb Butte and Granite Mountain, local landmarks, are both clearly visible. Two guest bedrooms; either can be used as an office. Sky lighted guest bath with tub/shower and corian sink and counter. Very unusual, hand crafted, stairway leads to third floor.

Third floor

Contains a 300 gallon water tank used to supply household water and filled from the well. The large attic open area can be used for storage or for sleeping arrangements for overflow guests.

Property

The property is bordered on two sides by National Forest limiting the possibility of intrusive development.
