If you are dreaming of country living that is still close to town, look no further! Set on just over 7 acres, this idyllic property features a 2,024 square foot farmhouse, fenced pastures, and a four-stall barn, ideal for a small-scale farm with horses, goats, or other animals. The main floor of the house has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, a kitchen that opens up to the great room, a wood-burning stove, and a separate dining room. Off the front of the house a laundry room with an additional 3/4 bathroom provides a perfect place to clean up after being out in the barn. The slanted ceilings on the second floor add charm to the third bedroom and an extra space makes a wonderful play area. Improvements made just this year include new flooring, lighting, kitchen appliances, bathroom vanities, baseboard heaters, electric outlets, and an asphalt composition shingle roof. Skylights and a well pump were installed within the last few years. All appliances stay with the home, and water is provided by a well shared with the neighbor. From the front porch take in the beauty of this open yet private location, where you can experience local wildlife and see the stars on a clear evening. Enjoy the bounty from a large garden with vegetables, herbs, and flowers, as well as a variety of apple, cherry, plum, and walnut trees.
