This is more than a home; it's a unique lifestyle property with room to spread out, work, create, store equipment, or simply enjoy the peace and beauty of the surrounding countryside. The thoughtfully updated farmhouse blends original character with modern conveniences and features 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and approximately 1,850 square feet of living space. The inviting interior showcases an updated kitchen with birch butcher-block countertops, Samsung stainless-steel appliances, Kohler sink, updated lighting, remodeled bedrooms, and an electric fireplace that adds warmth and charm. Additional improvements include new interior and exterior doors, updated electrical panel, whole-house water filtration, reverse-osmosis water system for the refrigerator, Nest thermostat, furnace, and A/C. Outside, the property truly sets itself apart. The newly constructed 30' x 60' pole barn, built in 2024, offers substantial space for hobbies, storage, equipment, vehicles, or a workshop. The original milk barn adds character and a connection to the property's history, while the expansive acreage provides a rare opportunity to enjoy the freedom and privacy of country living without giving up the convenience of being close to Manhattan and surrounding communities. Whether you're looking for acreage, a hobby property, a substantial workshop, additional storage, or simply a private place to call home, this property offers possibilities that are increasingly difficult to find. An exceptional combination of land, improvements, character, and location.
