Equestrian Farm offers a high-quality, custom-built log home with a primary and guest suite on the main level. The exterior boasts pine log construction, a spacious carport attached to the house, a covered patio, a welcoming front porch, two rear decks, a screened porch, and a patio at the terrace level. Inside, you'll find elegant pine flooring, exposed pine log walls, vaulted ceilings with pine beams, and a grand stone fireplace in the living room. The open-concept kitchen has granite countertops, maple cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. Built-in bookcases are featured in the guest bedroom and living room. The primary bathroom was upgraded in 2021, showcasing tiled floors and showers, vanities with marble countertops, under-mount sinks, stylish fixtures, heated tiled flooring, and a freestanding soaking tub. The primary walk-in closet conveniently connects to the laundry area. The second level offers a spacious loft that overlooks the living areas, kitchen, and a single bedroom and bathroom. Two car carport with access to a separate exterior staircase behind the carport leads to an unfinished loft area on the second floor. This loft has central heating and cooling but is not included in the home's gross living area. The terrace level features three bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, a second kitchen, a media room, and a dining room. The terrace kitchen has a stove, microwave, refrigerator, sink, and quartz countertops. Perfect set up for a private apartment or in-law suite. Equestrian facilities include a 60 x 40 two-stall horse barn with a tack room, hay/shavings bin, wash rack including hot & cold water, and a hay loft on the second level. The barn is equipped with power and water supply and was initially designed as an eight-stall barn, allowing for conversion to accommodate additional stalls. The property is surrounded by four fenced pastures with four-board fencing, a creek, a secure garden area, and a chicken coop. Bring the animals and enjoy your new journey.

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
