This well-built and comfortable home is perfect for homesteaders and anyone looking for a turn-key home that doesn't require all of your attention. There is an entry deck, good for watching the horse and buggie traffic go by from, and there is also a back deck with a privacy fence for you to unwind and do your own thing. The yard houses two sheds and a mini-barn that will stay with the property. There are gardens, raised beds, meadow, lawn, berries and fruit, a plateau of land by the stone wall for sunset-gazing, and magnificent weeping willows wisping about in the breeze. The kitchen, living, and dining have an open layout. For extra storage, use the pantry and large hall closet, or maybe keep a freezer in the spacious entry-room. Need to find a place to make a quiet space in side? The all-season sunroom would be perfect for that! And for the not-so-quiet projects, the large attached workshop should accommodate your needs with power, heat, and some rough plumbing. Canners will appreciate the cold pantry in the workshop, too. The solar array All of the 2.3 acres are open and enjoyable -come see! With a full price or better offer, the seller is offering a $3000 credit toward appliances.

Tucked into its natural surroundings, this home is almost like it sprouted and grew there. Look at the modest cost to purchase, heat, light, and maintain; the opportunity to raise a good part of your food right on the property; the peaceful country setting that is easy to connect with the other world; the adaptability to the four seasons; and the natural beauty. The kitchen, living, and dining are an open floor plan but there are other places to tuck away to unwind like the window-walled den, cozy reading room with a pellet stove, or even out in the large heated workshop! The entry-room is very spacious and even allows for a breakfast nook, or whatever suits you. The side deck that gazes out over flowers and fruits has a privacy fence, and the front porch is open so you can take in the sunset view. The two portable garages will convey with the property. This home has so much to offer. Come see if it makes your day brighter.
