Welcome to the self-sustaining rural retreat you’ve been dreaming about. This 6.5-acre turnkey homestead has been lovingly renovated and thoughtfully upgraded from top to bottom, and it shows in every detail. The beautifully updated home is tucked into the hillside, surrounded by gardens and 30-year-old mature fruit trees that have had decades to hit their stride – think established, producing, and gorgeous come harvest season. A new roof, new siding and a new heat pump are just a few of the highlights. This property also has two fully fenced in areas for livestock and pups! Need space for toys and tools? You’ve got it. A full shop plus additional outbuildings give you all the storage you need for sleds, bikes, gear, and everything else rural life demands. And yes, the chickens live better than most of us – “Cluckingham Palace” is a luxury coop that’s as charming as its name suggest. Off-grid dreamers, take note: solar power, a root cellar, and a full water treatment system means this property isn’t just beautiful, it’s genuinely self-sufficient. These homeowners have thought of everything, so all you have to do is move in and start living the rural-paradise life you’ve been picturing. With 6.5 subdividable acres, there’s also room to grow – whether that means more gardens, more outbuildings, or future options down the line. Turnkey. Thoughtful. Truly one of a kind. This is Birken living at its finest.
