This home has a 2/1 upstairs and a 1/1 apartment in the basement with it's own access and kitchen. A cozy home with a full front porch, established garden spot with a small barn and a private location. You can park your vehicles under the open air carport and use the adjoining out building for projects or storage. The lower portion of the property has a small reservoir pond with picnic area and water wheel close by. Would make a great get away home or full time residence.
