Home Off Market

Originally built in 1925 by Robert F. Koenig as Twin Oaks Hunting Lodge. This home has retained much of its original architectural character and charm from the 1920's while a 2008 sunroom/dining addition and kitchen remodel gives you all the modern conveniences of the 21st century. The kitchen has granite counters, ample cabinet space, top of the line appliances, and wood floors harvest from the property. The kitchen is open to the sunroom/dining area with a wall of windows for animal & bird watching. Well located 1/2 bath & mud room with sink offers direct outdoor access.
