There is a spacious country kitchen updated in approximately 2006 and a cozy wood stove that gives it that traditional farm house style.  The downstairs master bedroom offers a walk-in closet as well as tons of storage space throughout the home.  The tall ceilings and abundance of windows give the home a very light and bright feel and the custom built-ins are a special touch.  Two fireplaces as well as a zoned central heating and air conditioning system make the home more energy efficient and comfortable.  At dawn and dusk watch the deer, turkey and other wildlife wander the orchards from the screened in front porch.  The high-end backup generator supplies power to the whole house in case of a power outage.  A brand new septic system was installed and there is a clear pest report.
