This Classic Farmhouse built in 1892 is a part of Cottage Grove history saved from demolition. Sellers have maintained its integrity and charm. Property is now for sale or lease to own.
The house underwent extensive rebuilding in 2009-2010. The exterior maintained its original appearance, with the entire interior dismantled and updated. The result is an energy efficient home with all the appeal of an old farmhouse.
Landscaping is in keeping with the era. Raised beds and fruit trees in the fenced backyard will thrill the gardener
The property, bordered to the North and West by Bohemia Park (www.bohemiapark.org), will prevent future housing development while providing green space, the amenities of a nearby park, music venue, and historical museum.
