for $229,900 with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, 1 half bath. This 1,635 square foot home was built in 1900 on a lot size of 1.58.
New listing—where timeless character meets the quiet grandeur of country living on 1.58 acres. This refined three-bedroom, two-and-one-half-bath residence offers the rare luxury of space, serenity, and substance, wrapped in beautiful original woodwork and elevated by thoughtful updates throughout. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, complete with an attached bath and soaking tub designed for unhurried evenings. Fresh carpet on the upper level this year and new carpet downstairs last year lend a polished feel, while newer stainless steel appliances, all included, bring style and convenience to the kitchen. Major improvements add confidence as well: central air installed in 2020, new furnace in 2019, new roof and siding in 2017, and a septic update in 2025. Outside, the acreage unfolds into a wonderfully versatile setting with a concrete patio, large attached garage, and four outbuildings: a 20x24 building with concrete floor and electricity, a 12x20 building with rock, an 8x10 storage shed, and an 8x40 semi cargo box. There is room here for gardens, gatherings, and the sort of hobbies that refuse to stay small. Peaceful, practical, and just a little indulgent, this property may also be purchased fully furnished. Come experience the simple joys of acreage living. Schedule your private showing today!
