Once a rural, early 1900 school house, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath, log-sided home has been totally renovated. The first floor consists of a combo LR/DR with wood stove, kitchenette with hickory cabinets, laundry area, 1 bedroom, and 1 full bath. The open staircase with white birch railings leads to a bedroom loft. Electric heat, full basement, 1,000-gal septic and well. The exterior is sided with 1/2 logs, and a beautiful 8x38 covered front porch was added so you can enjoy the surroundings. In addition, there is a nice 24x50 steel barn with concrete floor, electric, restroom, and 2 large doors on each end, and a separate 12x16 outbuilding. A brook runs the length of this 1.5-acre parcel; based on flood map, house & barn are not in the floodplain.
