10 acres of the perfect kind of country living. Woods, outbuildings, ponds, front porch, open pasture area for horses, but you'll find the real hidden treasure when you step through the doors of this, what appears to be, unassuming home. Step into the sunroom flooded with natural light perfect for morning coffee or watching a storm roll in...this leads you to the galley kitchen which was an addition to the original 1850's built home. Hand hewn logs grace one wall giving this room tons of character, the "dining room" could be considered a dining hall it is so large and again with the hand hewn logs and a wood stove, use this room for anything you like there is enough space to make it a multipurpose area. The Living room is on the main floor, as well as the very large primary bedroom. Bathroom has tons of space. The second level is pure magic with beams on the ceiling, hand hewn log walls wrapping the massive family room with another wood stove. You will find 2 more very large bedrooms upstairs....every ceiling in this home is tongue and grove, and every floor but the bathroom is hard wood. To say this is a one of a kind property is an understatement. AND just 15 minutes from downtown Waterloo in the Waterloo School District. The grounds Are gorgeous, with plenty of outbuildings for horses, chickens, tractors, ATV's, etc....You are not dreaming this property exists and is just waiting to take your breath away!!

Agricultural District
The Agricultural District of Monroe County encompasses areas where soil, water, vegetal, and topographical resources generally provide conditions well suited to the raising of crops and domestic animals. The district is designed to prevent the intrusion of nonagricultural land use and development which would hinder agricultural pursuits by reason of congestion on public roads, chemical and biological pollution of air and water, environmental conditions, soil erosion, and the depletion of natural cover causing runoff of storm water onto and across agricultural land. The district is designed to protect and preserve the areas of high agricultural productivity and is intended to preserve conditions suitable to agricultural purposes. Anyone applying for a permit for a residence in this Agriculture Zoned District must sign a certificate that they are aware that there might be a sight, smell, or sound of agriculture business in the area.
