Property Description

There are homes? and then there are properties that change the way you live. Welcome to nearly 5 fully fenced acres designed for freedom, functionality, and peaceful living ? all just five minutes from I-71 and close to Route 42. As the automatic gate opens and you pull down the drive, the world feels quieter. The entire 4.62 acres is enclosed with a 6-foot treated privacy fence set on concrete posts, creating a secure and secluded setting for animals, recreation, and everyday life. The farmhouse greets you with a timeless front porch and porch swing ? the perfect place for morning coffee or evenings overlooking your quarter-acre stocked pond filled with bass, bluegill, and catfish. Mature trees and an apple tree add beauty and shade to the landscape. Inside, newer tongue-and-groove wood flooring runs throughout the main level. A professionally removed wall opens the kitchen to the dining area, creating a bright, connected gathering space ideal for entertaining. Custom bench seating adds warmth and functionality. Just off the attached two-car garage, a thoughtfully designed mudroom addition with a full bath makes country living practical ? perfect after time in the shop or outdoors. Upstairs features four spacious bedrooms and a remodeled full bath. Newer vinyl flooring in the primary bedroom and bath reflects continued updates. Major improvements include a new roof and gutters (2022) and a furnace installed in 2026, offering peace of mind. The impressive 48' x 42' shop includes 10-foot tall and 12 foot wide fully insulated doors, separate 220 electric and plumbing, a bathroom, 6-inch concrete floors, 2 floor drains? ideal for a business, workshop, storage, or homesteading expansion. A chicken coop, livestock pen, and space to grow complete the property. This isn't just acreage. It's a lifestyle ? private, functional, and ready for its next chapter.
