Weekend getaway? Art studio? The original Cold Springs School House in Bull Valley has many possibilities. It has been in the same family since 1954. This charming cottage style home is on 2 acres. The main part of the house was the old school room in the late 1800's and early 1900's. It has a wood burning fireplace. The kitchen addition came in 1954 when this was first converted to a family home. In 1968 a family room / library was added on the north side. There is a nice 3 season porch on the back. Certainly it could use a little updating in the kitchen and bathrooms but it'd be a great place to call home or to use as a weekend getaway. The original school bell in the bell tower still works. The exterior was painted October 2019. More land available. The property is along the Bull Valley Riding Club trails. There is room to build a barn or even to build another home.
