Property Description
The property is a nature lover's dream, surrounded by mature fruit trees, berry bushes, and vibrant perennials. A gentle stream runs through the land, adding to the peaceful rural setting. A well-kept barn and a large machine shed offer plenty of space for storage, hobbies, or livestock. Plenty of concrete surrounds the large milk barn for anyone wanting to raise livestock in a dry lot. The machine shed also includes a recently renovated and insulated office which can easily be heated. The milk house, also recently redone, is heated. The property also comes with an older barn and two nice outdoor sheds which could be used as a chicken coop or a home for other smaller livestock. New pasture fence and gates stay with the property and were added in 2022. Inside the home, recent updates blend seamlessly with its historic charm. The kitchen has been completely remodeled and now features an open flow into the dining and living rooms, creating a warm and inviting gathering space. The flooring throughout has been updated, and the original hardwood floors in the living room have been beautifully refinished. A newly renovated back porch (2024) provides the perfect spot to relax and take in the peaceful country views. Centrally located between Thompson, Dixon, Freeport, and Sterling, this property offers the perfect balance of quiet seclusion and convenient access to nearby towns. Whether you're looking for a hobby farm, a private retreat, or a unique historic home to make your own, this one-of-a-kind property delivers on every level.
