About This Home

This beautifully remodeled mid-century retreat is hidden at the end Rainbow Lake. Think of floor to ceiling windows bathing the main floor in natural light, eco friendly engineered bamboo floors and a wood burning stove warming the winter (serviced in Feb 2026). All three bathrooms and four bedrooms, including the master ensuite, have been remodeled. Maybe you can turn one room into your office? Did you see the freestanding claw foot bathtub? New kitchen and appliances. Every window has been replaced with Pella (even the front door). For your toys or hobbies you won't find better space: a 30' x 40' free standing pole barn, with light and power. Plus, a downstairs garage and hobby room, insulated and wired to support everything from an electric vehicle to a welding machine. Updates in the last 5 years include a new dual fuel furnace and upstairs mini split. New roof in 2021. All new ceiling fans with remote controls. 6 inch gutters and downspouts, LED lighting and Lutron smart lights that are controllable from phone, new kitchen appliances, electrical upgraded to 220 volts in both garage and carport, ultra wide entry steps with large decks in front and back of house. Start your day with coffee on the back deck, see the sun filter its way through the forest trees. After work, sit on the front porch and watch the orange sunsets. Finish your evening on the screen porch and enjoy the gentle breeze.
