Upstairs is a self contained suite (which could easily be integrated into he main home), offering another bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, balcony, and living room with wood-burning fireplace. The land is excellent here, with established plantings to black currants for farm status. The orientation of the property allows for great sun exposure and the slope of the land allows for suitable air and water drainage. The water has adequate water rights for most plantings. In the back of the property, there is a sauna and greenhouse. Plenty of landscaping has been done to create a scenic environment for this acreage, including a hot-tub w/ views of the monashees. Upgrades include newer deck, electrical panel, and the landscaping areas. The home construction offers flexibility for renovations due to lack of load-bearing walls, allowing for the ability to open up the living spaces if needed.
