Take a step back in time. Built in 1889, this 2BR/2BA home has quite a unique history. It was once a one room school house for the area with the original bookshelves still in place. Around 1906 the building was expanded to add a post office. It remained the area post office until the 1950's when it became a private residence with 2000sf. Over the years, the property has been updated by the current owners. SS appliances & fresh paint, in period correct colors. Original hardwood floors surround the two wood burning fireplaces. Both bathrooms have also been updated. The home sits on just over 4.5 acres with no restrictions and a spring fed pond. The property also includes a large barn, additional out buildings and good parking. Home is just a couple of minutes from entrance to Skyline Dr. Would make a great Air BNB. Whether it is a weekend getaway, primary residence or a good income producing property come experience what country living is all about.
