Built in 1905, this nice old farmhouse is ready to move into. Two new HVAC units create a degree of comfort that the builders could not envision! Has original wood flooring in some rooms with vinyl planking installed in others. Kitchen and bath have been remodeled with new cabinets, flooring and appliances. Some walls have wainscoting. The well was installed 3 years ago. 2 bedrooms are upstairs with a bonus room for an office or playroom in the front facing dorma space. The Master is on the main floor and a half bath could easily be added to the master. Pretty setting on just under an acre of gently sloping land with a nice fast flowing stream at the rear. The original well-house can be used for storage or other uses as it has electricity and shelving. The large detached 2 car garage has plenty of room for a shop as well. Large trees make for a pretty site with good views up & down the valley. Evans Cove is a beautiful valley with some nice older homes.
