The combination of the main residence with its outbuildings offers versatility for hobbies, storage, or potential business ventures. Built in 1976, the home has a cozy charm with its two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The kitchen is well-equipped with ample cabinet and counter space, a pantry, and room for a table, making it a comfortable space for cooking and gathering. Plus, the convenience of having the washer and dryer on the main level, adjacent to the breezeway/mudroom, adds practicality to daily living. The living room's wood-burning fireplace with a brick surround adds warmth and character, ideal for cozy evenings. The presence of an informal dining room with a built-in corner cabinet enhances the home's charm and functionality. The basement has been recently painted with concrete sealant. It offers generous storage with additional space for work, recreation, or hobbies. The recent installation of a new furnace in 2023 and central air in 2024 ensures modern comfort, along with the convenience of a whole house fan for ventilation. While some features like the inline filter and oxidizer are sold "as-is," the inclusion of appliances like the washer/dryer, basement upright freezer and kitchen appliances adds value and convenience for the new owners. With its spacious acreage and various outbuildings, this property is perfect for someone interested in starting a hobby farm or pursuing other outdoor activities. It offers a blend of rural living with the comfort and functionality of a well-maintained home—a compelling package for anyone seeking a country lifestyle. Sellers open to reasonable offers.
