This two-story farmhouse sits on 3.25 acres and is full of the character that you search for! Original hardwood floors, Craftsman details, and a feel that’s hard to replicate. Three spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, there’s room to spread out while still maintaining that cozy farmhouse feel. Outside, a quaint white picket fence frames the home, while mature trees provide shade and privacy. The attached garage and six additional outbuildings offer incredible versatility—ideal for equipment storage, workshops, or a variety of outdoor hobbies. Whether you’re dreaming of a hobby farm or exploring a homesteading lifestyle, this property is ready to support it! Conveniently located less than one mile off Highway 99, you’ll enjoy peaceful country living within the Mediapolis school district. A durable red metal roof adds to the home’s curb appeal, and the septic system was inspected in April 2026 for added peace of mind.
