Professional interior pictures will be added on Monday, when the property is Active. Tucked away at the end of a private lane, this unique 1901 farmhouse offers more than 18 acres of privacy while remaining just about one mile from shopping, dining, and Fifth Street. The property has combined the character of an older farmhouse with an abundance of spaces designed for relaxing, entertaining, gardening, and enjoying the outdoors for over 60 years to the same family. The main home includes 3 bedrooms and 1½ baths, along with an eat-in kitchen, large dining room with a west-facing bay window, cozy bar area, sunroom, and spacious family room. The family room features a cathedral ceiling, stone fireplace, and numerous windows overlooking the property. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a full bath, and a balcony overlooking the living room. There are plenty of options for enjoying the outdoors. The extensive acreage offers plenty to explore for wildlife enthusiasts and hunters alike, with abundant wildlife throughout the property. The south-facing sunroom features skylights and overlooks a neighboring farm, while a covered porch off the kitchen and a large patio provide additional gathering spaces. Near the pool is a gazebo with a stone fireplace, creating a great setting for outdoor entertaining. A fenced area behind the home provides space for pets or children. One of the property's most distinctive features is the approximately 500-square-foot barroom. Complete with a bar, pool table, stone fireplace, and plenty of room for conversation, dancing, and gatherings, this space offers tremendous flexibility and could also supply an opportunity for a future additional living arrangement, subject to township approval and applicable requirements. The 40' x 20' inground pool has provided years of enjoyment but has not been opened in recent years. The property also includes open grassy areas, extensive wooded acreage to explore, and a large fenced garden area with plenty of room to grow vegetables for year-round use. A detached two-car garage, workshop, additional parking, and a stone lane running alongside the home provide plenty of room for vehicles, hobbies, and projects. The hot water furnace is approximately four years old. And, the well water filtration system was also updated. There may also be future development potential. The current owner previously explored subdividing the property, and plans were prepared. The subdivision was not pursued because of requirements related to creating and paving a designated access road. Any future subdivision or development would be subject to township approval and applicable regulations. A property with this combination of acreage, privacy, character, recreational space, and convenient location is a rare find.
