Front porch is concrete slab (stained and sealed since these photos were taken) with a metal roof. Elevated back deck is 2" x 6" treated lumber with oil finish, approx. 400 square feet with metal roof extending from the house (with c purlin structure). Deck is completely enclosed with all steel, red-primed 2" x 3" tubing railings and 3.5" x 3.5" square tubing uprights with 36" x 16' panels. Stairways have spring-loaded gates onto the deck on the east and south sides. The deck is constructed to allow a relaxing, open view of the property as it safely contains children as well as dogs of all sizes. The house was re-leveled in 2005 (it required only minor adjustments) and now sits on approx. 3' centers with corrugated metal underpinning. Well-established landscaping provides privacy. Seller very motivated!

Water heater (GE 40-gallon) newly installed in Jan. 2013.
*Electric bills are extremely reasonable (home is generally kept at 68-70 degrees year-round with no emphasis on monitoring for efficiency because there is typically always someone or pets in the residence). Average monthly charge for last year was approx. $175 per month (Stream electric).
Taxes for 2012 were $717.16 with AG EXEMPTION.
Sellers had anticipated updating the home, room by room, but a career position necessitates this sale. They focused on the livestock facilities and the exterior: The interior awaits your customization!!! Sellers will consider conveying items that they had planned to use in the interior upgrade: For example, french oak wine barrels to make into custom his-and-hers sinks in the master bath; approx. 800 square feet of natural marble tile (tan & gray-with-a-hint-of maroon). The emphasis has been on creating a rustic, western-styled homestead for the animal enthusiast.

OTHER PROPERTY INFO
Stock pond with three large cottonwoods at water's edge with a stand of nice hardwoods nearby that would make the perfect picnic area! (There is an existing water line to the pond from well.)

Hardwoods and pecans are sprinkled around the property in such a way as to leave multiple areas of shade in all pasture areas. Large cottonwood near the main barn.
