About This Home

As of September 2022

Follow the back roads through rolling meadows of wildflowers and mature corn fields to this storybook log cabin on 21 acres with hidden pond onsite! Included in this sale is a 6.5 acre vacant parcel that provides additional road frontage and privacy for the house. Mineral rights are included and royalties of 150 dollars per month convey to the new owner. Let the hummingbirds greet you while wind chimes sing along on the massive, covered front porch. Inside, the space is wide open with a large 2nd floor loft area perched over the living room. Currently the loft is a bedroom but it could be an office or perhaps another living space. Detached 2 car garage has a storage area above that could be a workshop. Outside, the trails to the pond are easily traveled and wind you through the woods to the hidden pond where huge koi fish and blue gills make their home.
