This Country Charmer Truly Has It All!

Nestled on 18 acres of wooded serenity, this property is a haven for nature lovers and hunters alike. Manicured trails wind throughout the land—perfect for peaceful hikes, ATV adventures, or simply enjoying the wildlife. Two ponds—one attracting ducks and the other serving as a watering hole for deer—make this a true outdoors enthusiast's dream.

The farmhouse has been fully gutted and remodeled with exceptional attention to detail.

Kitchen: Custom-built cabinetry, quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, and a spacious walk-in pantry.
Living Room: Cozy gas fireplace flanked by built-in bookshelves and cabinets.
Office: Features a custom-built desk, wainscoting, and built-in storage.
Upstairs: Three bedrooms and two bathrooms, including an owner's suite with a walk-in closet (with washer & dryer) and a private bath.
Major updates: All new electrical, plumbing, roof, siding, and Andersen windows (2017). A new engineered septic system (2019) was designed for long-term durability. The home features foam insulation, central air, and can be heated by either propane or the wood-burning boiler.

Relax on the covered front porch or the full-width concrete back patio. A generator hookup ensures peace of mind during power outages.

The impressive 60' x 40' barn/garage includes:

Two 10' x 60' lean-to extensions running the full length.
A 40' x 30' three-stall garage.
A 40' x 30' gym/game room with rough-in plumbing for a bathroom, mini-split heating & cooling, and a wood-boiler-powered heater.

Basketball court and beach volleyball court adjacent to the pool.
