The work, however, is designed for durability and not just good looks.
Thanks to the charitable contributions of Citizens' Lighthouse Community Land Trust members and donors,
the home is being made more energy-efficient.
It is also being thoroughly improved so that no wear from the last 50 years of use remains.
The home's systems have been completely renewed, including plumbing, wiring, and heating.
The bathroom and kitchen have been totally renewed down to the studs.
Every fixture and appliance, save the recent range, is new.
This house represents an outstanding opportunity for a young family
to begin the home ownership experience without worry about unforeseen problems
related to prior wear and poor maintenance.
Our recent open house allowed a preview during construction.
Despite a cold spell and snow storm, many interested persons and neighbors visited.
We will schedule a conventional open house once renovations are completed... that is,
if the home is not already sold!
Sadly, during construction, we evicted the squirrels nesting in the walls.
But we wanted to make sure that the family moving in will feel right at home and can
focus on enjoying life in their new neighborhood.
Applications from potential buyers are welcomed.
All interested persons are encouraged to send an inquiry
