Very nice Country Ranch home with full basement, geo thermal heating, great views and a solid home. Wrap around covered deck takes in nice views. Good pole barn with workshop area and concrete floor. Virtually no noticeable noise coming from...
proximity to Rt. 38. Definitely worth checking this out if you're looking for acreage and good flat land.
