Charming 1860s farmhouse that has been completely renovated with over 30 years of hard work. This home has a lot to offer for a homesteader or someone who is concerned with saving energy and enjoying the charismatic charm of an 1800s style farmhouse. The house has 1,604 sq. ft, 3 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. Both bathrooms have been recently updated, as well as the updated Quartz countertops in the kitchen and energy star appliances. All the windows where replaced with Anderson Low E windows. The kitchenette area has some of the original chestnut hardwood floors and the living/dining area has real oak hardwood floors. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and has oak hardwood floors, custom built cabinets, energy star dishwasher and appliances with two kitchen sinks. At the end of the kitchen there is a door that leads to a back room for firewood storage and dried goods. On the back side of the kitchen there is a sliding glass door that leads out to a generous sized deck that overlooks the property and the pond. The deck is a nice hidden private area that faces directly east to catch the morning sun that rises over the horizon.
