Three bedrooms; one currently being enjoyed as an office, and two baths complete the main level including the master bedroom with private full bath. To the finished lower level you ll find a huge great room with wood stove and slider to the back yard as well as two rooms with closets which could make it a 5 bedroom with some septic improvements. One of the lower bedrooms is currently being utilized as a guest bedroom for it's it's privacy and modern third bathroom with over-sized tile shower, tile floors and brushed nickel faucet. This amazing homestead has endless possibilities for a lifetime of memories; friends and family barbecues, parties around the fire pit or perhaps even a wedding; the current owner had theirs here and it was simply beautiful!
