Bechard Acreage

This 1976 home was purchased by the current owners in 1987. Situated on 5.84 acres, it features one of the best views in the Valley! With a reclaimed asphalt driveway, leading up to the front door of the walkout basement, this home features 1712 sq ft of living space on the main floor and an additional 1300+ sq ft of finished living space on the basement level. This house is extremely energy efficient. There is electric baseboard heat with individual thermostats in every room. The natural gas fireplace on the basement level is also on a thermostat and heats the majority of the home. Upstairs there is a roughed in wood fireplace that also could easily be converted to gas if you wish. Water is sourced from a shared well and 12000 gallon cistern and is gravity fed to 7 acreages. The acreages have their own cooperative and have set the price at $400/year for unlimited water use! The home has it's own iron filter, water softener and RO system. The water is excellent! The sewer system is also gravity fed. Solids are held in a 500 gallon septic and gray water is ran to a lagoon. With 5 bedrooms and an office, there is plenty of space for a growing family! Kids are bussed to nearby Lumsden Schools. The detached garage was reshingled in Fall 2020. The garage features a unique layout with an unheated triple car garage and an adjacent 12x 58 heated and insulated workshop. Exterior garage lights and power to plug-ins can also be operated from switches in the house. A small barn is behind the garage and previous owners had horses at one time. Dog runs and a chicken yard were also both off of the side workshop at different times. There is plenty of space in the yard for garden areas and when the trees and bush are leaved out this acreage is incredibly private.
