You won't find another like this one! 46 acres with frontage on 2 roads, complete with maintained trails and 4 spring fed ponds. The home is nestled into a hill which makes the views from the massive windows incredible. The property is currently classified as a wildlife habitat area which keeps the taxes low and makes it the perfect spot to enjoy the abundance of deer, turkeys, rabbits, you name it. It is also a bird watcher's paradise. If you've been looking for a spot to show off your mid century furniture, this home is begging for it! Built in 1950, with its limestone exterior, large windows and lots of wood, it would be perfect. The boiler was rebuilt in 2019 and there is a brand new septic system, too. The 3 level barn is the perfect place for toy storage, hay storage and a workshop. Close to Potato Creek State Park, this is your own slice of paradise. Welcome Home!
