Welcome Home to this vintage farmhouse that oozes charm and is so very chic. If these walls could talk you'd be privy to conversations starting in the early 1900's! Host your get togethers in the fab living room with its fireplace and view of lake across the street. The screened in porch with glorious views of the property is located off of the living room. Your dining room has wonderful vistas of the property and begs for you to host dinner parties. A "be still my heart" paneled den/family room is the epitome of style and comfort. The kitchen is super functional with eat in area and sliders that lead you to the double deck. Enjoy the addition with loads of light that is a perfect WFH spot or playroom. Dual staircases bring you to the 2nd floor with oversized master suite w/bath and 3 additional bedrooms and 2 hallway bathrooms. Enjoy loads of light and storage space on the 2nd level. The basement has access out to the yard and is perfect for storage. A detached 3 car garage can hold all your toys. Or possibly turn it into a granny flat. If you are a vintage aficionado and are not afraid of some work, this home is for you. The location is dreamy and this property could make a wonderful weekend get away too. Only 47 miles from downtown but a world away.
