Over twenty years ago a man had a dream. He wanted to build his own home. Now he was not your average home builder want-to-be. He was an engineer and a licensed contractor who also worked for one of the most well-respected construction companies in Kansas. The two-bedroom, two bath home with a three-car tandem garage he built in 2001 is a Morton building built and finished to be a home. This means you have a low/no maintenance steel roof and exterior. The walls are 2x6 construction for extra insulation and the windows are all double pane Pella windows. Part of the dream was to have a woodworking shop. That's why there is an 11 x 58 garage and a 200 Amp electric service panel so no shortage of power. It's where he built bunk beds for a local charity. The yard is almost completely fenced and includes access thru an old back alley as well as a storage shed. Speaking of yard, there isn't much of it so you won't be spending a lot of time on yardwork. Most of the interior has been freshly painted and had new flooring installed. For, for those cold Kansas winter days, there is a freestanding woodburning fireplace with gas starter in the family room. At the home is a notebook with pictures that chronicles his home building journey. Now you may wonder why anyone would leave such a well-cared for, low cost, and low maintenance home? He’s moving to live in an area where his construction career started, and most vacations were spent in the hopes of eventually building a home in the Colorado Mountains.
