The property’s agricultural/grazing zone designation provides a nice break on your property tax. Power comes from two solar arrays; one was added in 2021 along with a new Midnight charge controller.

An Ashley woodstove in the dining/living area, along with a propane stove and forced-air furnace, keep you cozy in the winter. Internet works great; the property has a straight-shot view of the WaterDog cellular facility across the valley. New hickory hardwood floors were added in 2019. A wraparound deck encircles 75% of the ground floor; a second deck sits outside the upstairs master bedroom for breakfast-with-a-view. The sunrises, sunsets, moon and stars are nothing short of astonishing. You can look long and hard and never find a property that checks as many boxes as this one.
