About This Home
This 1908 Sears Roebuck catalog farmhouse in Comstock Schools offers country living with city perks, just a bike ride from the KRVT and downtown. Set on 3.5+ acres, you'll find native pollinator gardens, orchard trees (pear, plum, peaches, mulberry, plus three kinds of apples), and even a private trail, sledding hill, firepit, and soccer practice field. Original wood floors and woodwork keep the charm, while updates like newer windows and fresh professional interior paint throughout make things move-in ready. Add in a carriage barn, chicken coop, and goat pen, and you've got the homestead dream without being too far from town.
