DETAILS

This beloved home of Chip and Barbara Hudson, retired teacher and engineer, is warm, inviting, and well maintained and has provided many treasured memories and will surely be home to many more

Nice 18 acre farm with 12 acres in cross-fenced pasture and hay production plus 4 nicely wooded acres and 2 acres of yard, orchard, and gardens

The home, built in 1932, has been well maintained with a long list of detailed records and updates including roof, insulation, heat pump, electric, plumbing, septic, windows, kitchen, bath, etc (see detailed list below)

2,072 sq.ft. in size providing 4 bedrooms (1 main level) and a full bath with room and plans for a 2nd bath upstairs

Insulation in home has been completely updated with new insulation in the walls, attic, crawlspace, and between floors with insulated windows and doors throughout and new reflective, high efficiency door and windows in the mud room.

Plenty of heating and cooling capacity with (2) Trane heat pumps serviced twice a year, gas furnace backup for main level, gas wall heater in the kitchen, and Waterford Trinity wood stove in the living room with upgraded stainless steel chimney liner

Last 12 months of electric bills from Dominion Power totaled $1,581.74 (an average of $132/month) and the total propane bill was $693.17.

Equipment shed and 24' x 32' garage / workshop behind home
