Is living off the Grid your Dream? Is a peaceful move in ready acreage your ideal home? This affordable 8.52 acre hobby farm will check all those boxes and more! The property has had numerous updates inside and out since last purchased. Lets start with the major exterior items, the septic system was installed in 2024. There is a 90'X90' fenced garden area. Imagine all the fresh onions, potatoes, green beans, radishes, squash, peas, carrots or your own pumpkin patch! There is a newer 10X12 Garden Shed for storing necessary tools for the prepping and harvesting of your bountiful garden. There are gated rotating pastures set up for horses, cattle, goats or sheep and a 12X16 barn to accompany the setup. The property borders DNR Waterfowl refuge land to the east. There is also a bee pollinator plot, if you like honey in your coffee, or use as sugar substitute for baking. The driveway was resurfaced with gravel this past year. The location of the home and windows provides beautiful views of the sunrise and sunset. There is new landscaping circling the perimeter of the house. The late Nineteenth Century Victorian home received a fresh new look with new exterior paint, complimented with new handcrafted cedar shutters. The LP forced air furnace was replaced in 2022, there is newer pex plumbing piping, 100Amp service, new interior paint with much of the original vintage charm. Hardwood floors adorn much of the main floor with a bakers kitchen, wood burning stove for secondary heat and light fixtures to match the time period. The flow of the home is the perfect blend of farm life with a mud room/porch to enter from working out in the garden or with animals, which leads into the kitchen were you grab a fresh biscuit or plate of supper, set in your formal dining area, retreat to the couch to unwind, before heading upstairs to wash up in the original cast iron tub and lay to rest for the evening in one of the 3 bedrooms. Do not let this one slip by, with so many versatile usage, this could be a VRBO rental, a Self Sufficient Hobby Farm, or just your own private get away each day or special occasions.
