Unique property featuring an early 1900's farm house that has had some updates to include a metal roof, interior and exterior paint, kitchen cabinets, hvac and rewired. Home features a wrap around front porch. Seller to install a mini split hvac upstairs prior to closing. There is a fenced area that with a little work could be a pasture area, a barn style building in that area as well. Current owner built an additional dwelling that has served as a rental. Additional dwelling is a studio style with loft area for storage and has always been easy to rent out. Or would make a great man cave or inlaw / guest house. Property offers much privacy and is ready for the next owner to make their own.

R-1
Single-Family Limited
The purpose of this district is to accommodate single-family site built and modular construction. The minimum lot size allowed in this district will be dependent on the provision of public or community water and sewer facilities. Although areas may be served with such utilities, most of these areas are located beyond existing or anticipated utility service coverage areas. The minimum lot size for residential uses in this district is therefore larger than in other residential zoning districts.
