Location, Location, Location! Very private and peaceful is what you'll find in this 4BR 1BA home with a one car detached garage and a Brook Trout nursery stream running through the backyard! All this nestled on 19 acres at the end of a dead-end road just outside the small town of Kenton in Duncan Township! This home and property have so much to offer and it adjoins Ottawa National Forest and CFA lands. The main floor of the home features a rustic kitchen/breakfast area leading to a large open dining/living area. The freestanding woodstoves in the living room and kitchen are perfect for taking out the chill on those chilly day and nights. There are two sets of sliding glass doors, one from the breakfast area, the other from the dining area, both leading to a deck where you can sit and enjoy your morning coffee as you listen to the sounds of the flowing creek and all mother nature has to offer! The rest of the main level consists of a front porch overlooking a beautiful pollinator garden and a full bath. The upstairs has four bedrooms and a large closet that could be converted into a bathroom. Two of the bedroom's hardwood floors have been redone and absolutely beautiful! Updates include, most windows have been replaced with Low-E windows, new propane furnace in 2021 and there are over 12 inches of insulation in the attic. The home also includes a wood furnace for either your primary or secondary heat source. There is a full stone basement with a laundry area. Outside there is an historic icehouse and other outbuildings that are excellent for storage. There also is a chicken coop and small greenhouse! Over the years the owner has planted fruit trees, butternut, serviceberry, cherry, grapes, herbs and blueberries. All this and a fenced in vegetable and asparagus/rhubarb gardens. There is an excellent walking trail leading you through the lovely large White Pines that will take you to the back of the property! Seller will not allow splits. Call for an appointment today!
