Built in 1873

Back on the market, this stately Italianate home, built in 1873, is a picture of timeless beauty and stately character. Nestled on approximately two acres, the property is a hidden gem adjacent to golden cornfields and offers a serene and tranquil retreat with the benefit and seclusion of the wooded lot. Inside, you'll appreciate the wide hallways and high ceilings. Each room on the main floor features a fireplace, with a particularly stunning example in the parlor which is separated from the large eat in kitchen by an original pocket door. Across the hallway, you'll find the large living room and main floor bathroom. Head up the sweeping stairs from the front door and you'll find four bedrooms and two bathrooms, including the large master bedroom with its own bathroom. You'll love putting your personal touches on this home, maybe even resetting the clock to the original style that the first owner, a well-known lumber baron, furnished and decorated the home (this time with HVAC systems for each floor). Looking to relax outside? A covered porch wraps around three sides of the home. Looking west, you'll see the three car garage, and storage shed. As you walk along the southern portion of the porch, you'll have a full view of the two-story red barn and large yard. The eastern side of the porch looks across the quiet road toward farmland and provides a clear view of the pool. Every inch of outdoor space feels like a perfect spot for seasonal gatherings. This setting strikes an ideal balance between rural tranquility and proximity to St. Joseph and I-29. Don't miss your opportunity at country living with quick access to modern conveniences.
