Charming 4-bedroom house with AC and WiFi in serene Bethel

Discover the beauty of Bethel from this 4-bedroom house. With 3 queen beds and 1 bunk bed, this wonderful property offers a serene escape for guests. Enjoy the nice bathtub amenities in the 2 bathrooms. You're sure to make fantastic memories with a stay at our place.

This home was our home for 12 years! Our family of 7 loved and enjoyed this home and the safety of the property, while our children were young. The home is set back with woods and farm fields surrounding the property. A creek runs in the back. This large home (3200 sq. ft.) provides peace and tranquility from the busyness of the world. We pray you love staying at our house as much as we loved living there. Please note- there is lots of wildlife, and bugs. You are really in heart of nature.

When you enter the house, you will enter the front sun-porch. This is my favorite room of the house. It is not air conditioned or heated. However if you leave the kitchen door open it will stay cool in the summer. In the winter, on sunny days, it is very warm. I prefer the blinds to stay down on the 2 front windows as the porch can get very warm.

Then you will enter the kitchen, with all the appliances you need for home-cooked meals.

There are 2 downstairs bedrooms. One is in the back corner of the house with a queen bed. There is a space heater in that room, as in the coldest month of winter, you may need it. (January). The house has a coal stove that we used as a family when we lived in the house. It helped to keep down electric costs, and keep the house warmer, but it will not be run for the guests. Please see RULES about the stove/ and fireplace. They are not for guest use.

There is a living-room/ dining room and a large family room with 3 sofas. Many people comment on the immense size of the family room. It is a comfortable place to relax and spend time together.

Upstairs are 2 more bedrooms, and a master bathroom.

SOME THINGS TO NOTE-
The downstairs of the house has a water filter system. It is found in the washroom. Please do not touch the system, or change anything. The water from the sink is drinkable, from the small faucet.

The upstairs does not have the water filtering system. The water in the whole house is hard, and has sulfur. The filtering system does a good job downstairs to diminish the smell of sulfur and the hard water aspect. However, the upstairs is hard, and the sulfur can be smelled, especially when the hot water is being run. All of the homes back on our road and lane have this same issue . The water is in the ground. Some people have gone to sulfur springs for healing. It may be appealing to some people, but not for others. If it bothers you, please just shower downstairs.

Other things to note: The whole house is on a generator if the electric goes out. If the electric goes out, the generator will come on, and it is kind of loud. It is on the left side of the house, outside the kitchen window. You do not need to do anything with the generator or tanks. The generator will also run sometimes for routine maintenance, just for a few minutes.
If the electric would go out and the generator not come on, please contact us.

You will see deer, and other wildlife during your stay. Do not leave food outside, as animals (especially racoon have been known to look for food). Please do not feed any stray cats.

You may enjoy the yard or take walk on the lane. The pond down the back of the lane is privately owned. It is not for public use.

Note as well that this is a country home. There will be bugs. We do get a pest control company to spray, but the bugs still come. Our home is very cozy, and comfortable with modern amenities, but it is in the heart of nature.

Another thing to note! WIFI is very shaky out our way. There is only one company that provides down our road, but streaming sometimes is slow and sometimes it does not work properly. We kind of struggled with it for 12 years. My husband and I did work from home a lot, but had to put up with the spotty Internet service.

If you are expecting to do full-time work at our home, this is not the place to do so, because the service is not the best. We have Verizon, and they just do not provide better service back where we are.

You should have cell phone service, but not full bars.
