ABOUT US: DBS Development, LLC is a group of six guys who decided to sub-divide a piece of property that has been in the family for 100+ years and build nice contemporary log homes on it. The group brings with them the experience of building frame and log homes in the 1980's and 1990's and construction of a large commercial campground that is currently doing very well. One of the six partners currently resides adjacent to the sub-division. We hope to build and sell six log homes on the current location and if all goes well another 3+ homes adjacent to this property.
LOCATION: This sub-division is in beautiful wooded mountains of Allegany County in western Maryland off High Germany Road which is off of Orleans Road South in Little Orleans, Maryland and surrounded by 46,000 acres of Green Ridge State Forest; please see the following link - http://www.dnr.state.md.us/publiclands/western/greenridge.html. The house and property are just 3.8 miles from Interstate 68 with the Potomac River and Fifteen Mile Creek 2.5 miles away and only 1.0 mile from Sideling Hill Creek. The fire department is just 3.7 miles. Other locations and distances are:
CURRENTLY FOR SALE: The pictures in this listing are of the house currently being built with the exception of the first picture which is a finished house built several years ago that is the same model as the one we are building. This house is the Seneca model purchased from Mountaineer Log Homes - http://www.mountaineerlog.com/ - in McHenry, Maryland next to Deep Creek Lake. This house has a living area of 1,632 square feet with full basement. If basement was to be fully finished this would provide 2,448 square feet of living space. The current price of this house does not include a finished basement. We will add updated pictures as the weeks go by, so please check back.
What you get for the $285,000 is this 24' x 34' two story house with full basement. House will be finished and ready to move into before the end of the year. It will be complete with two car detached garage with enclosed breezeway. Garage will be log slab as is the second floor on this house with 2x6 walls and full plywood wrap. Driveway will be blacktop. The overhead utility wires you see in the pictures will be buried and there will be no overhead wires in this subdivision.
House will be completely finished inside with hardwood floors downstairs and lament floors upstairs. Kitchen and bathrooms will be upgraded with kitchen appliances being stainless to include refrigerator, stove, built in microwave and dishwasher. Kitchen will also have island with full double sink. Large laundry room with washer, dryer, wash tub sink, cabinets and folding table. Central heat and air conditioning with backup propane furnace. Picture of the downstairs layout shows full bath, however, this will only be a half bath with two full baths upstairs. Upgraded wiring with ceiling lights in each room, smoke and carbon monoxide detectors through out. Anderson windows, full 6' front porch with finished yard and landscaping.
House will be inspected and meet all International Residential codes as well as local codes and inspections. House will be on a 1.65 acre lot with septic system and individual well water which is all included in the price. The only costs you will have each year other than your monthly metered electric bill and real estate taxes will be the cost of the Home Owners Association fees which will be established by the home owners themselves. This association will be kept simple and its main purpose is to maintain Wellersley Manor Road year round. This will be and 18' wide gravel road with grass banks that connect the lot driveways to the main road. Winter time snow removal will have to be provided for.
OPTIONS: This house will be under roof the first week of October. We will then start finishing the inside. If you are seriously interested in this lot and house, we can still make changes to the inside as we go along. If you contact us and we sign a contract the price of the house can go up or down. For example; floors, countertops, lighting and appliances can be upgraded or appliances can be deleted if you have your own, taking the price down. Garage could be deleted or built at a later date which will significantly decrease current cost. If this interests you then contact us quickly because once the house is completed this price will stand. There are currently 6 lots with this house being built on lot #6. We are close to entering into a contract on lot #5 and have some interest in lot #3. Even if you are not ready to build a log home for a couple of years it is still possible to purchase the land with electric, well and septic now.
CONTACT: It costs just your time and fuel to come and look, so please contact us. We are firm on building log homes on these lots, however, we will look at log home kits of different companies other than Mountaineer Log Homes. Also, remember that the log home of your choice can be contemporary. Lot sizes range from 1 to 5 acres. Also, we can build the house you like without finishing the inside which can be completed up to two years later. Again, once this house and the other four lots not yet reserved are gone, it may be a few years until we start the other 3+ adjacent lots and homes. Contact us through eBay at this site or email dougsipes@hotmail.com or phone Doug Sipes at 301-268-7422. We are a Maryland LLC in good standing with General Contractor's License #01302648 and currently registered as a Maryland Home Builder regeistration #6354. Fully insured and house will carry a full one/two year warrenty contract.
