This is a 1900 farm house with an attached summer kitchen and a detached 3 bay garage. The main house has a large 20x20 kitchen and two front rooms and a small bathroom(remodeled recently) with a sink, toilet and shower on the first floor. The west side porch has been enclosed and leads to the deck. The second floor has four bedrooms approximately 8x10 give or take a few feet for each room. Basically big enough for a bed. dresser and a desk. There is a master bedroom 17x 14. A small 8x8 room that I use as a sewing/craft/office room and a bathroom with a 4x4 shower and a clawfoot tub. This bathroom has also been remodeled. And access to the full attic is in the bathroom. Connecting the main house to the summer kitchen is a laundry/mudroom. There is a door to the driveway side porch. It has a concrete floor with a drain. The summer kitchen is paneled in tongue and groove pine and has an oven and sink with room for a refrigerator. There are two connecting rooms above the summer kitchen used for storage and a full attic above them. The West side of the Main house has a 16x16 covered deck, great for viewing the fields. The Front(North side) has a covered porch and the original 24inch double doors with Rose glass above them. The East side also has a covered porch great for sitting and watching the sunrise. On the 3.49 acres We also have two chicken houses, a run in shed in the back field and an enclosure that we made to raise pigs. There is an apple tree, pear tree and peach tree along with blueberry and black berry bushes. There are also crab apple trees along the east side of the property. There is a stream/run on the West side of the property that leads back to Larry's Creek which is trout stocked creek at the back end of the property. There are oil furnaces in the basement, but we use rice coal stoves on the first floor. One in the west front room which heats the entire main house and a smaller stove in the summer kitchen which keeps that room toasty. We have ceiling fans at the top of the front steps and one at the top of the steps in the kitchen that circulates the heat from the downstairs, up and across the hallway and down the stairs to the kitchen. This property is perfect for homesteading. The neighborhood is quiet. There are six neighboring properties , one is a rental, the other five are older couples.
