The house has both electric heat and an outdoor wood boiler to keep this home efficient and warm. The garage does stay warm due to the radiant heat from the wood boilers pipes.

The deck overlooks the barnyard, and the meticulously maintained 4-acre pond stocked with crappie, bluegill, catfish, bass. The pond has been kept in amazing shape by annual treatments for weeds to ensure access from all sides. The pond is hidden by tall mature white pines on both the south and west property lines.

Each trail has animal tracks, rubs, and scrapes from this year and years past. Deer, rabbit and other small game calls this property home and they enjoy the hard work and habitat management over the past 25 years. Soft and hard mast producing trees are spread across the property in all directions. Each tree was selected, planted and cared for individually to help support wildlife and restoring hardwoods to the property. Persimmon, sawtooth oaks, red oak, white oak, burr oak, pin oak, english walnut, chestnut and pecan trees are sprinkled across the property. Some of the trees are already producing mast while others will continue to mature and produce in the near future. For the waterfowl enthusiast, this farm offers a unique opportunity.
