This country cottage, with acreage and a barn, is perfect for someone looking to settle in this area but also close to major highways for those who work in other parts of the city. Large covered front porch is a perfect place to entertain. Great room has a vaulted ceiling and flows into the dining and kitchen. It has a private master on the second level with a small sitting area and balcony for morning coffee. The basement has some areas already studded in for whatever you need additional space for! The lot itself is mainly level but has a gentle roll in some parts. If you have horses or large dogs it would be perfect. There is a third parcel, listed separately, of undeveloped land 1.4 acres that could be purchased with this.
