VALUE ADDED, DEFINED

Everybody wants it but few ever get it. With this exceptional property, value added is a daily feature, an inseparable element of life, a built-in bonus with perpetual benefits. And you don’t need to sign up for it or subscribe to it. Nature is the service provider and you are the beneficiary. Here, value added comes at no additional cost and it pays rewards constantly.

Unlimited, Exceptional Privacy, Peace and Tranquility

Comprising thousands of acres, the properties surrounding this one will never be developed and the privacy, peace, and tranquility offered here will never be compromised.

Unlimited Sustainability

This property and its surroundings offer the opportunity to live a self-sustaining life. With the arable, topsoil-rich flood plain for farming, more than adequate gardening ground around the house, 18 edible wild plants in abundance, various edible fish species and other aquatic life, edible wildlife varieties, unlimited water supply, and unlimited outdoor cooking fuel, the essentials for healthy human life are sustainable independent of external influences.

Unlimited Direct Contact With Nature

The health benefits of contact with nature are well documented. Governments of civilizational societies like Japan and China create nature zones for their city populations because these benefits are widely recognized. Contact with nature is the antidote to the sicknesses of modern society.

Unlimited Access to Outdoor Recreation

Hiking, mountain biking, swimming, snorkeling, wading, walking, boating/kayaking, fishing, hunting, foraging, gardening, sunbathing, stargazing, bird watching, exploration, photography, sketching and plein air painting, mountain climbing, grounding, botany, archaeology, fossil and treasure hunting, floriculture, natural science, entomology; all of these activities and more abound here.

Unlimited Stress-Free Living

The health benefits of a stress-free life are also well documented and those benefits are inherent here, inseparable from it.

Unlimited Enjoyment of Twelve-hundred Feet of River Frontage

Very rare and nearly impossible to find, water features are overwhelmingly preferred by property owners, visitors, tenants, and buyers.

Unlimited Potential for Property Value Increase

As a real asset in limited supply, this property will increase in value over time. When the studio building is made habitable, this property’s value will increase exponentially, possibly to double its current valuation or higher.

Significant Earnings Potential

As a wellness or corporate retreat, outdoor activities base camp, Airbnb, boutique farm, or remote office, this property offers significant income potential.

Unlimited Living in a Clean, Non-Toxic, Healthy Environment

This speaks for itself. The benefits are enormous and really cannot be quantified.

National Historical and Art-Historic Significance

As a singular artistic revival by a renowned artist of a national historical site, this property has a unique value that cannot be quantified by any appraiser. As the artist who created it becomes increasingly renowned, its art-historic significance will increase accordingly thereby further increasing the property’s real market value.

Unlimited Potential for Value Increase of the Integrated Art Collection

Whether kept on the walls or stored for safekeeping, the integrated art collection will only increase in value. This is true regardless of the fate of the artist and especially true as his reputation grows. According to the Wall Street Journal and other respected publications, the potential returns may meet or exceed those from more traditional investments. Original fine art is an asset that appreciates while being appreciated. Based on the artist’s sales history, historical significance, career achievements, inflation, and appreciation, these eight original Firepaintings together have an estimated fair market value of $150,000 today.

Room for Expansion of the Residence

Through an existing floor plan and a small remodel, a full bathroom may be added to the east bedroom, thereby converting the residence to a 2-bedroom, 2¾-bath home. A connection to the main drain and vent system is already in place. Adding a closet to the basement great room would expand the whole to a 3-bedroom, 2¾-bath dwelling. These alterations would increase the property value significantly.

Unlimited Pride of Ownership

Owning a singular dwelling on a remarkable property in an exceptional, highly desirable location is a unique experience in itself. Returning home to a place like this is different from returning to a copy of someone else’s repeated design. Knowing that you own a residence unlike any other brings strong feelings of appreciation for what you have. It confirms your status as a person with discriminating taste and validates your achievements that enabled you to acquire such a special place. It elevates your standing in the eyes of your family, friends, and peers and inspires admiration and envy in them. You will proudly invite people to visit and they will feel proud at being invited. This pride of ownership instills a feeling of satisfaction that no other place or asset can. And this feeling generates feel-good chemicals in your brain which contribute to the overall healthy lifestyle that living here offers. You can just sit here doing nothing and feel happy, and that feature alone is priceless.

Unlimited Campfire Wood

Nothing says quality of life like sitting or dancing around a campfire with good friends, and few activities connect us so closely with human history and the nature of nighttime living. This activity is timeless, therapeutic, magical. Watching a campfire is a deeply relaxing, mesmerizing experience that captivates every participant. The scent of the hardwood smoke, the crackling and popping of the gasses released from the wood, the sparks bursting and floating into the air, the soothing warmth, and the embers glowing red, orange, gold, yellow, green, blue, and violet all bring a sense of wonder and contentment that is sorely missing from modern life. Campfires in the woods were the first nighttime meeting places of our distant ancestors, the places where stories were told, negotiations were held, ceremonies and celebrations were delighted in, great meals were prepared and relished, and life and light were celebrated. Simply put, no pastime compares with enjoying a campfire at night and this property provides the place and the constantly renewing supply of firewood to enjoy this pursuit at your leisure.
