Inside features 2 bedrooms plus a versatile sitting room that could easily serve as a third bedroom, 2 full bathrooms, a bright open-concept kitchen, dining and living area, a Heartland Oval wood-fired cookstove, propane range, Pacific Energy Super 27 Heritage wood stove (2018), Mitsubishi 18,000 BTU heat pump, electric baseboard backup heat, spacious tiled mudroom, ample storage throughout, and two outdoor decks for relaxing and entertaining. The impressive outbuildings provide exceptional flexibility for woodworking, farming, storage, or a home-based business. The insulated 50' x 32' two-storey woodworking shop features a gambrel roof, garage bay with overhead door, 220-amp electrical service, two spacious 10-foot workshop areas, wood heat with Selkirk chimneys, a large lumber loft, and an insulated upper-level multipurpose room.
