20 acres with 2 houses! That's just the start of what you'll find at this wonderful retreat located on a quiet road in Schuyler County. The larger house, built in 1999, has 2,376 square feet, 3 bedrooms, and 2 full baths; the smaller house, built in 2004, has 1,626 square feet, 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. Both houses have fiber-optic Internet and rural water, and each has its own septic system. The acreage includes a creek that runs between the eastern and western borders, parts of three different ponds; several hayfields (which could be converted to tillable land); apple, cherry, pear, peach, plum, chestnut, walnut, and hazelnut trees; and bushes full of blackberries, raspberries, and gooseberries. In addition, there are several outbuildings--one of them currently being used to raise chickens. Wildlife sightings include bald eagles, turkeys, owls, bobcats, and deer. This property is perfectly set up for multi-generational households who want to live near each other, far away from neighbors, and on land where they can undertake a homesteading adventure--all while not going totally off the grid.
