Forty-nine acres of fields and woodland surround this 1728 sq. ft. fully insulated steel industrial building. Built in 2000, this commercial style building is currently used as an artist studio, workshop, and living quarters. A galley kitchen and separate wash room separate the workshop and loft bedroom from the artist studio, dining/living room. A large cedar deck overlooks the meadows, organic garden, and woodland. The property was once a working sheep farm and the lands remain organic, never having had chemicals applied. The surrounding land offers fields for grazing, timber for cutting to help heat your home or build a stable. An old apple trees stands prominatley in the small field overlooking the garden, old fashion lilac trees, spruce, fir, and other common vegetation of the area. From the studio/workshop, take the meandering path through the field and into the woods to a three-season octagon cottage. The cottage has a wrap around deck, kitchen, living area and loft bedroom. Your closest neighbors are the deer, fox, rabbits, grouse, and other wildlife that make their homes in the woods. The property is in tree growth and therefore enjoys reduced taxes.
