Cozy and Perfect! Welcome to 3478 Chicago Road! This 3.76 acre property has had a ton of work done to it over the past 10 years! The 2012 updates include steel roof on the 60' x 60' Barn. The barn comes complete with all the hanging gates seen inside. There are also many gates for the pasture areas to the North and South of the barn. The South pasture does have a Ritchie livestock waterer that would be perfect for cattle and horses. The Barn also has a built in cattle head chute. On the south side of the Barn there is a concrete stave silo that hasn't been used in years but makes a perfect focal point, that could definitely be repurposed into something really neat! The 44' x 60' Machine shed, with a concrete floor and extra clearance metal trusses, offers tons of extra storage! Within the Machine shed there is a 15' x 27' heated and ventilated area with a car lift that is perfect for the guy that likes to tinker on his own projects or take on the projects of others! Both areas have their own overhead door! The original milk house still sits on the property and has been repurposed as a garden shed, but would make a great little chicken house if one so desired. The 40 x 24' 2 car plus garage is stacked with all the options! Insulated, drywalled, heated, with a trough style floor drain, ceiling fans, cabinet area with fridge and 9' x 10' overhead doors with direct drive side mount openers! The perfect party palace! Now onto the best part of the property! The home is awesome! Built in 1901 this home still has the look and feel of a true Farmhouse but has been updated very tastefully to give you everything you could need and want! There was a remodel done in 2012, but there have been many update since then! The main level has a simple open concept to the kitchen, dinning, and living room areas. The 9 foot ceilings add to charm and openness of the main level. More main level features include, updated kitchen in 2017 with Rustic Maple custom cabinets, Corian countertops, and stainless steel appliances, main level laundry with cabinets and sink (washer and dryer new in 2017), main level full bathroom (2022 remodel), huge mud room, back porch and heated front porch! The best feature is the Constitution Heatilator Wood Burning Fireplace! This hands down, is the place to enjoy your morning coffee! Sit on the ledge and let the heat sink in as you get ready for your day! On your way up to the 2nd level take note of the beautiful wood work! 3 bedrooms upstairs with a updated master walk in closet and large bathroom with tub and shower! Other updates include, glass sliding patio door in 2017, storm windows on the west side in 2017, new hot water heater, water softener, whole house water filter in 2020, new back door with keyless entry in 2022, NEW ROOF, GUTTERS, AND WINDOW WRAPS IN 2022!!! With this list you must be convinced that this place is a must see! It doesn't cost a thing to look! Come today and take your peak!
