Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are on the second floor, offering a convenient arrangement for families with growing children who need their own space and privacy.
All windows in the house are Pella windows, and the doors are high quality solid wood Morgan doors, which were made by the same Wisconsin family for over 150 years but are no longer manufactured.
The house has a full basement with a laundry and utility room, and plenty of extra space that can be converted for recreational use or other purposes. A wood fireplace in the basement was converted to propane, but could be switched back to wood. A convenient central vacuum system serves the home and has a cleanout in the basement. A water system that purifies the homes well water is also there.
Directly behind the house a carriage house-style workshop offers a perfect area for tools and projects, and a root cellar for storing food supplies at a steady temperature.
A lovely and inviting home, Oakcrest is just the right place to raise a family in a beautiful country setting.
