The upgraded and updated custom ranch home has an extremely hard to find layout with TWO Master Bedroom Suites on the main level! Based on your needs and wants, the one suite could easily be utilized as a separate "in-law" apartment or vacation rental since it has a private entrance, potentially expand your home based business or office space, set up a true homeschool or e-learning classroom configuration, the options are especially vast and varied with the TWO large outbuildings and 12 acres of land included. Plus there is a full, walk-out basement that is partially finished for even more space options. Outside you'll find approximately an acre of fenced yard including the seasonal pond and a 12x12 traditional shed, a 65x40 Machine Shed with 200 amp service/concrete floors/2 loft storage spaces/half of the building is insulated/I beam, trolley, and 3 phase electrical wiring are included, plus a 42x42 building currently set up for animals. The land has the potential to be USDA Certified Organic since no sprays/chemical additions have been applied since 2007 so bring your critters, plant a massive garden, and live out your homesteading dreams in the fresh air! Please note that all the home mechanical are relatively new- brand new on demand hot water heater for the South Wing is from Aug. '20, high efficient HVAC for the main part of the house was new in Jan. '19, 2018 brought a new ion exchange media water filter and reverse osmosis system, 3 years on the main water heater and water softener, 10 years on the South Wing's geothermal HVAC, & a 50 year shingle installed in '05.
