Morning light moves through the kitchen windows before the coffee's even done. This German-style chalet on two private acres sits just outside Apple Valley Lake in Knox County, Ohio, offering a rare mix of architectural character, updated systems, and true acreage living close to Kenyon College and Amish country. Step inside to find a home built for every season. A wood-burning fireplace and a ceramic masonry stove anchor the living space, while a geothermal heating and cooling system keeps energy costs low year-round, a major draw for buyers searching for efficient, low-maintenance country homes. Four bedrooms and three full bathrooms include two en-suite retreats, each with its own private balcony overlooking open farm fields. A walk-out basement adds flexible living space, and a UV water treatment system is already in place. Outside, the property is set up with 3 fenced pastures, a two-stall barn with water and electricity, ideal for your hobby farming, or simply more room to roam. Recent updates throughout the home (2023 to 2025) mean the character stays intact while the systems underneath are current. This is a rare find for buyers relocating to Knox County, searching for equestrian property near Apple Valley Lake, or drawn to a true country lifestyle within reach of Mount Vernon, Columbus, and Kenyon College. Geothermal efficiency, a masonry stove, private balconies, and two private acres make this chalet a standout among Central Ohio acreage listings. Sellers are not accepting any 'Subject To' offers. '
