A neighboring property with similar acreage and comparable overall square footage recently sold for $1,445,000, providing helpful context for the value of this unique property. With its history, setting, and thoughtful renovations already in place, there is also plenty of opportunity for a new owner to add their own upgrades and personal touches over time.The main house offers 1,864 sq.

Also downstairs are a convenient laundry room and half bath. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms and a beautiful full bathroom. Recent improvements provide both beauty and functionality, including a complete electrical overhaul throughout the home with new outlets, switches, service panel, and updated wiring. The entire upstairs was taken down to the studs and rebuilt with new drywall and plaster. The upstairs bathroom was fully renovated with new tile flooring, tiled shower and wall surrounds, a clawfoot tub with shower, new vanity, toilet, lighting, and fixtures. Plumbing updates include re-plumbing of the upstairs bathroom, primary bathroom, and kitchen, along with the installation of a new exterior clean out. Additional upgrades include new baseboards, shoe molding, and door casings throughout the home, fresh interior paint on all walls, ceilings, doors, and trim, new lighting fixtures throughout, a new 2-ton HVAC unit and duct work serving the second floor, a new crawlspace vapor barrier, and refreshed landscaping featuring newly installed grass and gravel in the front yard.
