Firstly, do not pay any attention to the pricing review for this property. xa0It is not based on MLS market value but on the tax evaluation. xa0The upstairs of this house is 7'10" tall so it is not considered taxable living space. xa0That is approximately 1200 SF of living space not included in FSBO's formula for property evaluation. xa0The house was appraised in July of 2009 atxa0$627,000.00. xa0I am asking $594,000. xa0Now, about the property.

xa0

First and foremost, the energetic spiritual feel of this house is extraordinary. xa0Each room in the house feels open, positive and free of any negativity. xa0This is a 1939 Cape Cod on a double lot (.98 acres) with approximately 131 feet of road frontage and a depth of 430 feet. It was well designed and well built. The floor joists in the dining/living room front third of the house are red oak, 12 inches on center. They don't make them like this anymore folks. xa0The first level of the house (2121.6 SF) has solid oak wood flooring except for the kitchen and bathrooms. The second floor (1243.9 SF) has wood flooring for the family room and beige carpet in the two bedrooms. There are three full bathrooms: two downstairs (one with tub;one with shower); one remodeled upstairs with shower. Though the heat for the house is hot air via an oil furnace, there is a large hidden propane tank which provides heat for the clothes dryer, kitchen stove and hot water heater which is instant and on demand.

All of the rooms in the house are graciously proportioned (example: living room is 17X25) with the exception of the remodeled atticxa0(10X12) which currently serves as a small office. The house sits on the lot more towards the front. The lot has a 10 foot tall privacy hedge of Leyland Cypress parallel to the road. Interior walls are plaster so the house is very quiet. There is both a side porch overlooking a private landscaped side lawn and a large (41X12) rear deck overlooking the back yard which faces south. The garage is detached and can house two vehicles. xa0The rear of the lot is both private and sunny given that it sits on the top of a gentle hill. The house is 2.5 blocks from 67 acre Beaver Lake where neighbors jog, walk, fish and canoe. Though the house feels like it is in the country, it is exactly 6 minutes from downtown via highway 19-23. The grounds around the house have landscaped stones placed by a master Japanese gardener from Kyoto. There are seven young fruit trees (cherry, apple, plum and pear) in the backyard plus two organic garden areas for growing vegetables. There are two hidden storage areas on either side of the upstairs rear bedroom in addition to thexa0basement which is 2100 SF with concrete/brick walls and concrete floor. I bought the house for the country feel of the kitchen which has two nooks. This is a very special property for a very fortunate buyer. Ideal for a family with kids. xa0This house is in great shape and is being sold "as is".
