Listing broker remarks

"The School House", built in 1862 as the neighborhood's School, it served its purpose as that until it was converted to a lovely single family home in the early 1940's. Make this gem shine! Sitting on a corner lot posed to gaze at the wonderful skyline of farmland and wildlife management area, this home has the base to be something great again. Having 6 bedrooms, and 1-1/2 baths and almost 2,000 sq. ft, there is plenty of room to do what you want here. Over 2 acres of land on a corner lot that gives you a combination of lawn/yard with still having plenty of woods to explore. There is also an attached 2 car garage w/ breezeway and an outbuilding that has playhouse written all over it! This listing is focused on cash or construction loan type financing due to its condition. Needs roof, possibly septic, etc! Lets give this place a "Next Chapter".— RE/MAX Prof Associates
