What's special
Don’t let the road name fool you—this home and acreage are anything but ordinary! This charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath home offers approximately 1,200 square feet of living space that feels much larger than the numbers suggest. As you arrive, you’ll notice the pride of ownership: a well-maintained property with brown fencing and a paved U-shaped driveway that welcomes you in. A 2-car insulated garage provides shelter from snow and ice in the winter, while inside, the open-concept kitchen features a moveable island for flexible use. The spacious living room showcases sweeping views of the surrounding fields and woods, creating a peaceful setting year-round. On the northwest side, a former 3-season room has been converted to year-round living space—perfect as a bright sitting area, or with potential to add one or two extra bedrooms. The main level also includes a bedroom, full bath, and laundry for everyday convenience. The home is heated with propane hot water baseboard, a propane Franklin stove, and a wood space heater, with central A/C to keep you comfortable during those warm July and August days. Full basement with poured concrete walls is a blank canvas for the next owners, newer 80 gallon hot water tank and 200 amp electrical service as well. Step outside and take in the approximately 7 acres of open field—once used as a private airport—complete with a small pond that was previously stocked with fish. Additional highlights include: A 30x40 pole barn A heated workshop with sliding doors (formerly an airplane hangar) and sauna A charming gazebo with a firepit for entertaining An 8x12 log cabin by the pond with a porch and propane heat—ideal for guests or rental use Trails meander throughout the property, offering opportunities for hunting, hiking, and skiing. If you’re looking for privacy, versatility, and a property with character, this one truly stands out. Let’s go explore what makes it so special!
