Overview

Description

This darling farmhouse style home harkens back to the way things were in rural America: living on the farm out in the country. No one knows the exact age of this home, but considering the construction, it is likely around 1900. It has been in this family for over 80 years, but they are ready to pass it on to new good stewards of this history. A small fire earlier this year resulted in some exterior siding damage on the back. Due to the smoke in the home, all of the flooring, appliances and kitchen counters were replaced and the whole entry level was painted. It still stands straight and has some bonuses, like a whole house generator(!), an enclosed front porch that is large enough to furnish and tons of natural lighting throughout the main floor. The front bedroom upstairs is non-conforming, having only a wardrobe for a closet. So come and sit a spell...and enjoy the peace of the country!
