Charming Farmhouse sitting on almost 8 acres! This Dutch Colonial-style 2-story home, built in 1905, has 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and is loaded with rustic charm! Throughout the home there's original craftsman wood work, original claw foot tub, and it even has the original farmhouse sink in the kitchen. The rooms are very spacious including a large living room and dining area. The front of the home has unique dormer windows on the 2nd story, a cozy, old-style front porch, a balcony above the porch, and the back of the home has a large wood deck. To complete the farmstead look, there's the original classic, large red barn with new paint and a newer metal roof, and there's an additional "man-cave" white outbuilding. The property is tastefully landscaped with many varieties of perennial flowers, shrubs, and large mature trees plus a big platform swing under the big tree. The 7.74 acres are in pasture and partially fenced and has a large circle driveway. The property line extends passed the creek to the south. The home has many updates including new paint and flooring, replacement windows, an Amana propane furnace in 2013 and new hot water heater in 2018. If you are looking for acreage that's in the country but close to the local school, and only 16 miles to St. Joseph, this is it! Motivated Sellers!
