Description

School is in session! Charming from floor to ceiling, this ultra-adorable home on 2.5 countryside acres was once the Knight School where children of local farmers gathered to be educated in the early 1900's, and the schoolhouse details have been preserved as this home was lovingly restored. As you enter from the covered front porch, ring the school bell to begin your tour! Highlights include 12' ceilings throughout, tall windows which are a hallmark of the schoolhouse style, wood and cork floors,...School is in session! Charming from floor to ceiling, this ultra-adorable home on 2.5 countryside acres was once the Knight School where children of local farmers gathered to be educated in the early 1900's, and the schoolhouse details have been preserved as this home was lovingly restored. As you enter from the covered front porch, ring the school bell to begin your tour! Highlights include 12' ceilings throughout, tall windows which are a hallmark of the schoolhouse style, wood and cork floors, built-in bookshelves in one of the bedrooms, and an L-shaped living room. Off the back of the home is a screened porch with removable plexiglass panels and a sliding door to the side deck. Follow the sidewalk from the deck to the ultimate "she shed" - it boasts a finished, drywalled interior with electric baseboard heat and is currently used year-round as a home office but would also be the perfect craft/art studio, kids' playhouse, man-cave, etc. Additional outbuildings include a ramped storage barn and red garden shed. Bordered by mature poplars, this square parcel presents level topography with woods around the home and open areas as well.
