    What's special

    The "OFF GRID" Detwiler Home – 27535 West Side Drive An absolutely wonderful Family “Farm” in the middle of an 18 acre Hardwoods Parcel with a clearing around the home and multiple accessory buildings – (Pole Barn, Storage Building, PowerHouse, Fuel Shed and a covered frame “tent” for vehicles). This 1024 sq.ft. main floor House with all its beautiful woodwork is shown on the 2018 Wojan-Cashman map of B.I. – just above the curve in the West Side Dr. in Section 18 between Teeter’s Bus Trail and Keller’s Hill. This 2 Bedroom and 1 full Bath up, and a 3rd Bedroom with a ¾ Bath in the finished Basement is remarkable because it has everything a family could want AND it is OFF THE GRID! The outstanding features of this setup are too numerous to describe here but ask Ed Wojan Realty to send you the 1 sheet of “Bullet Points” on the generators, inverters, solar panel arrays, battery banks, fuel supply setups, new propane furnace and many other features. It also has a fenced in garden area with raised beds and water system. The house will be sold with all furniture and appliances included. Also about $100,000 of Equipment including 3 Tractors, Brush mowers, tillers, Driveway Grader discs, riding mowers and much, much more – including a multitude of tools – too many to list. This home and State of the Art Off-Grid complex was built by Bill Detwiler, an electrician and lifelong self-taught “engineer”. You have to see all that is on this 18 acre parcel to believe it. The improved raw land value is about $80,000. All the buildings would cost someone over $600,000 to build new today. (For a total replacement cost for everything of $650,000 today). It is therefore a bargain at the asking price of $475,000.
