The original homestead of the Fincher farm, this renovated 1940s farmhouse retains the charms of yesteryear yet provides the comforts of a modern home. The inviting front porch is the perfect place to sit and swing. The main level has a floor plan with a wonderful flow and a spacious master suite. The upper level has two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom with a claw foot tub and a cozy bonus area, perfect for an office or reading room. The basement has high ceilings and can be accessed from inside or outside the home; perfect for storage or possible expansion. Nice location with a country feel, yet only minutes to shopping and other conveniences and 15 minutes to downtown.
