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 adjoins the property and provides additional road frontage for privacy. Mineral rights are included and royalties are 150 dollars per month that convey to the new owner. Let the hummingbirds greet you while the wind chimes sing along on the massive, covered front porch. Inside the space is wide open with a large 2nd floor loft that is being used as a guest room but could be an office or family room. Detached garage has space above that could be a workshop. Outside, the trails to the pond are easily traveled and wind their way through the forest to the pond where blue gills and huge koi fish will surprise you!
