Bethel Barnhouse - Wonderful House and Land for Sale
This is the easiest house we have ever lived in with sturdy
metal constuction, roof and siding, and lots of space. If we
get to build again, we hope to build something like it again.
We call it "Bethel Barnhouse" because it is located in the
Bethel community outside of Greenville, and was converted
from a barn. The house sits about 300 feet from the road.
The great room is really GREAT. It is
approximately 1,800 square feet with 9.5 foot
ceilings and five ceiling fans surrounded on
three sides with large windows and double
french doors (not only giving extra light, but
also making moving large items though these
doors very easy). There is also a glass-front
wood stove on a beautiful brick hearth. There
are lots of oak cabinets and shelves
throughout this room. Acid-stained concrete
floors are easy to keep clean and free from
dust and allergens.
The three very large
bedrooms are roomy
and comfortable.
Each are
approximately 14' x
20', have large
windows and high
ceilings, and lots of
closet space. The
master bedroom has
an external door
close to the bathroom
for easy access.
There are also three
bathrooms, one of
which has a
whirlpool tub and the
other two have large
showers.
There are two central heat and air units, one for the
central part of the house and one for the bedrooms. In
addition, there is a wood stove and each room has
ceiling fans. We use propane for heating, water heaters,
and cooking. Utilities include Cash water and FEC
electric. We also have an aerobic septic system.
There is also a large garage that we
built with a 12 foot high door
clearance for an RV. It is 20' X 40' on
a concrete foundation with insulated
walls and roof.
It has a feeling of seclusion with woods and wildlife around, and yet easy access to
businesses, restaurants, and grocery stores. Cedar Grove Baptist Church is a
pleasant walk down the country road.
Thank you for your interest in this property. Please contact us to make an
appointment if you wish to see it. It is shown by appointment only.
