One-of-a-Kind Turn-of-the-Century Homestead Step back into a simpler time with this remarkable turn-of-the-century homestead, a place where heritage and heart still linger. Only two families have ever called it home, with the original homesteaders living here for 113 years. Their legacy lives on in the craftsmanship, the outbuildings, and the stories this land still whispers. Inside, the home offers 4 bedrooms—including one on the main floor—and a full bath on each level for convenience. The kitchen carries its traditional roots, elevated by a butler’s pantry that adds both charm and function. The spacious dining room is made for gathering, while the wraparound porch invites evenings spent enjoying the breeze, a glass of lemonade, and quiet conversation. The land tells its own story through original homestead buildings. The granary still stands as a testament to skill and endurance, while another early structure, though weathered, holds strong potential once placed on a new foundation. Behind the home, the workshop built by the original owner during his retirement is ready for hobbies, projects, or handy repairs. The well house provides pure, natural water that’s as fresh as the day it was tapped. For today’s needs, the pole barn garage offers room for two vehicles and added workspace. All around, the property invites the spirit of self-sufficiency. The grounds are well suited for a garden, an orchard, or a simple patch of wildflowers to bring beauty and bounty to daily life. With thoughtful care, this homestead can once again provide not just shelter, but a way of living connected to the land. From the moment you arrive, there’s a sense of peace and belonging, as though time slows down and welcomes you home. This is more than a property—it’s a true homestead, waiting for someone to honor its past while creating a future. Please note the agent missed the downstairs bedroom on the scan of the first floor plan and a picture. Call today to schedule your private showing and discover the story that could become your own.
