It has 10 foot ceilings, beautiful fireplace surrounds, wooden staircase,transom windows, and the original poplar wood flooring upstairs that were refinished. Along with the old charm, they've added modern touches such as marble tile floors, quartz countertops in the kitchen and bathrooms, stainless steel appliances in the custom kitchen with a gas fireplace, and a private bathroom and large walk-in closet in the master bedroom. This one-of-a-kind home is situated on 3.6 acres and features a 2500 square foot pole barn, garage, newly added carport, asphalt driveway, a cave, and beautiful landscaping, including a flower garden with a water fountain.
