About This Home

As of July 2024

This historic home in the village of Mount Aetna started as a one-room log cabin built at the end of the 18th century. Some decades later it was expanded into a two-story farmhouse with a large attic. The detached summer kitchen was joined to the house via a main front entryway recently. One bedroom has a privacy violation. The upstairs foyer is large enough to accommodate a bed or large desk or TV room. The large attic provides a huge area for storage. The office/den could be used as bedroom, although it has privacy violation for bedroom upstairs.

The house has been newly outfitted with an entirely new hot-water heating system. Kitchen appliances and washer & dryer also recent. The house needs a bit of work to finish planned renovations, but you can move in now and work on it while living here.

The detached garage holds two cars and a large workshop with even more storage above in a loft space. Behind garage is a chicken coop. The large yard can accommodate a generous garden for people interested in growing food or flowers.
