What a perfect farmhouse situated on 6 1/2 acres with prime hunting on your own property! Such a convenient location, so close to town and the privacy of living in the country. The home itself has been totally redone just four years ago, with roof, plumbing, electrical, flooring, and cabinetry just to name a few. It has almost 1200 ft. ² of finished living space with two bedrooms, two baths and laundry on the main level with an additional bedroom space in the basement and a separate washer dryer in the basement. You must see the unique loft that is in the second bedroom. A nice large deck on the back of this home overlooks the property with its trails and fire pit in a peaceful sitting. Has a fresh, massive blacktop driveway and a separate cut-in in entrance where you could build your dream home in the back. This property would make a great mini farm. Pole barn split with man cave space, storage or vehicle in other space. Property is being sold as is and comes with a home warranty.
