A picture-perfect red antique barn greets you as you enter the driveway to the home nicely set on a knoll. The detached 2 car garage has a potential of an upper in-law apartment with finished space in need of work, yet has an automatic generator and a new furnace and new CAIR in 2019. This home was quit a place in it's day with gorgeous wood beams in the living room, a sunken sun room with elaborate artwork, 4 fireplaces, built-ins and more - which also is in need of work to restore it to it's original beauty. Outside enjoy the stone patio with outdoor field stone fireplace/grill. There is also an automatic generator as well. This nature lover's property has mature plantings and paths with trellises and arbors throughout to take it all in. There is plenty of room for horses, which will require some tree clearing. Priced to sell now and property is being sold as-is.
