Construction on this 4,400 square foot home with 4&1/2 bathrooms is about 90 percent complete. The builder/owner will continue finishing up the final stages of construction which is estimated to be completed by January or February of 2011. This would afford the new buyers the opportunity to plan or design the final touches in finishing their new home. The highest quality of building material and equipment have been used in the construction of this home as well as the other buildings that are a part of the property. The owner & builder is known for his reputable building skills and he has meticulously built or supervised every step of the construction. Only the best in design, materials and workmanship make this one of the finest homes available.

This home was designed and built by the owner for his personal home so extra planning went into design & materials to make it the best home possible. He is very particular about building for strength and durability as well as designing aesthetically pleasing, yet practical features in homes. However, about the time this home was 90 percent completed, circumstances dictated a move for the owner, putting this wonderful home on the market. With this home comes a superb location for beautiful country living along with the conveniences of being only 6 miles from Valentine and just a few hours from the Interstate cities of North Platte & Kearny. This location is on the way to the mountains of Wyoming or the Black Hills of South Dakota and many of the tourist attractions throughout the Sand Hills and mountains. The home was designed with LOTS of windows on all sides to get the best view while also saving energy through passive solar energy. This spacious all electric heated home sets on 18 acres. The first and second stories feature many windows & beautiful 3/4 inch oak wood flooring. Below is a half basement which gives entrance to a spacious 10X20 foot storm shelter/root cellar that is built to withstand even long term disasters. The basement has a full bathroom. The classic design of the doors and windows throughout the house make this home bright and open. The house is completely wired & insulated with heating & air conditioning running and working. This allows the house to be lived in while completing the remaining construction which includes tasks such as putting down base boards, trim, siding and stair covering. Most materials needed to finish are already on the site, so no need to purchase, haul or have them delivered.

The ground level includes a Kitchen/Dining Room, Living Room, Studio/office Pantry & planned area for infrared sauna room, Utility room, and 1&1/2 bathrooms. The Lovely & very roomy 14X32 ft. kitchen comes with an electric built in double oven and a propane Counter Range and a nice central counter. A large Living room with beautiful oak flooring leads right to the kitchen. Located on the west side is a secluded 20X32 office area with its own outside entrance that can be used for an in-home business or made into extra bedrooms or even used as living space for one's elderly parents. This office area also contains a full bathroom.

The second story includes a Master suit (on the east side), 2 bedrooms on the west side), 2 Full Baths, and a Landing/Library area. The abundantly spacious Master Bedroom with its Full Bath, Utility/Laundry room & large Walk-In Closet has a patio door that leads out to a 14X40 foot deck. This enables you to use both the inside and outside of this beautiful bedroom to its fullest extent. The deck swings around the house to include 3 sides for the best of outdoor enjoyment.

Two other buildings include a Summer Kitchen & a large Garage. The Summer Kitchen/Storage area is attached to the house through a basement entrance which opens to the very large underground 10X20 ft. cellar/storm shelter/emergency living quarters area. This underground structure also serves as an indoor passageway to the Summer Kitchen (860 sqft). Steps leading up to the Summer Kitchen give ample space underneath for a large storage area. A spacious garden area is right outside this summer kitchen making cleaning harvests, keeping soiled gardening shoes and such a cinch to keep the dirt out of the house. A large & established fenced in garden area is ready to use and includes 25 cherry and apple trees and 35 blueberry bushes. Since this Summer Kitchen includes ample storage, all gardening tools, canning equipment and equipment for"putting up the harvest" can all be contained here. This Summer Kitchen also has plumbing set up so a bathroom could easily be put in. An garage with 40 foot fully inclosed heated corridor that includes wonderful storage space is attached to house so weather is never a factor in going from garage to house. In fact, you can go from the garage to the house to the summer kitchen without going outdoors. Two-car garage includes large storage area on the back side and also has bathroom potential (plumbing ready to install a bathroom if one is desired.)

Shelter Belts consists of nearly 3,400 one to three year old evergreen trees (Pine & Cedar & Juniper) which border all sides of property. Scads of Choke cherry, Choke berry and Buffalo berry trees and bushes are planted throughout this shelter belt. Some 1,300 feet of drip irrigation is installed for watering the shelter belt as needed. The yard area has over a dozen 5 to 7 year old Maple & Oak trees. There are also 10 hydrants spaced throughout the property for convenience in getting water to yard trees & plants and the garden area. Native Prairie Grasses cover the 18 acres of land.
