About This Home

As of October 2019

Benefit from the love and care this homesteading owner has poured into this one of a kind micro farm. Solidly built in 1981 from trees hewn and milled on site, this south facing house is at the beginning of a long life. Metal gambrel roof, enclosed porch, wood floors, renovated bathroom, and propane heat. Solar panels, woodstove, and an insulated walk out basement make this home practical and efficient. The landscape is bountiful with an acre of tillable land, 'no spray' vegetable and perennial flower beds, mature fruit trees, a pond, stream, and three substantial outbuildings with electricity, parking and ample storage. Acreage includes three additional buildable lots- surveyed and perc tested. Farm equipment may be incorporated into the sale.
