The home is an 1860 classic Brick Italianate of 2412 sq. ft and although used part-time by a single man, it is in good or better condition with a nice view across the creek valley. It is serviced by an updated 4 zone oil furnace and has a security system and a dug well. Inside, the kitchen has new cabinets and appliances. Floors are refinished wide planks. There are 8 rooms total, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. Years ago, the home had a one BR apartment and that could be changed back if desired. the third floor is a walk-up attic and could be refinished for substantial additional living space if you didn't mind abbreviated head room along the outside walls. The view from there is even better.

The barn has a block foundation and a Gothic arched roof. In good condition, it is 36x96' and has 2 large pens in it now. It can be easily converted to horses, cattle or small animal stalls. There is also a fairly new 24x36' garage. It has 3 doors with openers, and a concrete floor.

$525000. The owners have told us to tell others that they are "motivated". They also told us to not submit offers that are decidedly lowball. Make it reasonable and you may be pleasantly surprised.
