The property also features 5 natural springs, a historic spring house, and even a functioning outhouse for added rustic charm. Inside, hardwood floors flow throughout the home. The main level offers a welcoming living room with a large picture window, a fireplace, and a dining room accented with a wood-burning stove and built-in cabinetry. The spacious kitchen features a gas stove, wall oven, stone fireplace, freestanding propane stove, and a cozy alcove sitting area, plus a den for flexible living space.
