The 2007 assessment is $463,600; however, we have since installed more bathrooms and a new $18,500 roof. This house was formerly a private daycare business and, originally, a Church. The original stained-glass windows have been restored, as have the wainscot and fir floors. The home has a wide-open architecture, "true" cathedral ceilings, accessed by two staircases, and eight temperature-controlled ceiling fans which do keep the home cool in the hot months. This unique home is perfect for entertaining as it is wide-open; however, with minor changes, or just as it is, it would also be great for a large family. Property is also a work-at-home professional's dream with twelve phone jacks, internet and cable hook-ups on all levels, and a "balls throw" from the major highways.
