Location !Everybody loves mountain city! One of the things I love the most is being in town where everything is super convenient, but not being right in the heart of town where there\'s traffic and noise all day. If you get too far outside of town, it’s a pain to run errands and the security isn’t the same. In town listings are hard to come by in locations that are desirable.Located on a dead end street off the main drag, up a hill, overlooking the town. Fairview Ave is about ¼ mile long and there are only 10 homes on the street. The cottage is located towards the end of the street and there is no street traffic.

It is a quiet in town location that is not right in the middle of town, but on a dead end side street with no street traffic. There are partial mountain views on 3 sides of the property and the western sunset over the mountains is terrific. There are deer in the back yard often. The back side of the property is lined with large trees for nice shade in the summer with a hammock and fire pit. A small creek borders the back of the property downhill. The entire back side of the property has lots of wild plants and a few dogwoods and every spring, a wall of purple and white tall phlox comes to life. 911 services are very, very fast if you need them.

You could also put in an rv pad on the back of the property that would have a great sunset and mountain views._____________________________________________I purchased this cottage 7 yrs ago and I have kept all of the original features. Most of the remodeling did was to the exterior. I preserved the small kitchen, the nice large bath with huge tub and shower and double sink vanity. I also preserved the original red oak hardwood floors in the living room and bedroom. The original wood lap siding on the exterior is also in tact and in very good condition.* The house has a new electrical panel and wiring and a new on demand hot water heater. The doors are new and most of the windows are new. The house has been replumbed with pex. The stove is lp gas as well as the wall heater. The house does not have hvac.Brand new Appliances are included : Top of the Line Frigidaire Gas Range, Samsung Frig w/ Ice in Door, Samsung Front Loading Washer & Dryer, New LP Gas Cermaic Heater, and New On Demand Hot Water Heater - very economical. * The house measures 24 x 28 or 675 sf enclosed.The covered back porch is 24 x 16 or 384 sf and was originally closed in as part of the house, and can be reinclosed if desired * There is a very nice concrete country front porch where there is always a breeze that is about 24 x 8 or 192 sf.* The large back wooden unconvered deck is about 23 x 30 or 690 sf.* The extra large metal shed has a standard door and a large side entry door. Shed is big enough for 4 motorcycles and is about 25 x 14 or 350 sf. ___________________________________________You can enclose the back covered deck and expand the back of the house and change the whole layout to create an open concept design and even add a second story. You could create a whole area above the ceiling as a loft or storage. House can also be designed to be wheelchair accessible. The interior needs some minor restoration - just some drywall finish work. The house has two small bedrooms, living room, kitchen, and bathroom. Because I moved the back wall in, I also moved the back door which opens into the back room or 2nd bedroom, which I presently use for a utility room. I have also done some landscaping to the lot. There are wild ferns, several big hostas, day lilies, two big butterfly bushes, some evergreens and peonies, yuccas, wild mint, and a pair of Bradford pear trees in the front yard.The property taxes on the house are about $ 200 a yr and the taxes on the vacant lot are about $ 100 a yr.
