Welcome to a classic 1830s style farmhouse that instantly catches your eye—and your heart. Set on two flat, open acres in scenic Schuyler County, this home offers the rare blend of character, simplicity, and essential updates that matter most.
This Capecod style house has three bedrooms 1 down (currently used as an office) and 2 upstairs, one and a half baths, and every inch of it has earned its keep. The bones are solid, the roof is metal and new as of 2017, the furnace was replaced in 2015, and the hot water heater came along in 2014. A few other improvements include a new well and pump , gutters and sistering floor joists in 2017. The kitchen has an L shaped layout and the kind of light that makes morning coffee feel like a ritual. A few arched doorways and a bay window in the living room tell the story of a house built in an era that appreciated character.
Step out the front door and pull up your chair on the porch to watch the cars go by or choose the back deck for a more private atmosphere. The land itself is flat and manageable, open to ideas. Continue to raise chickens, grow a garden, park a camper, build a bonfire ring.
Out back sits a barn-like outbuilding being used as a home gym that’s ready for tools, projects, or idle tinkering. You could slap a name on this place and call it a homestead, but it doesn’t need branding. It’s already got history, grit, and enough room to build a life that doesn’t revolve around screen time.
This is a place for someone who values simplicity and character—someone who’s looking for their 1st home that has already stood through generations and is ready to keep going. It’s straightforward, solid, and real—a steady place to settle in, stretch out, and slow down. Contact us today to schedule a showing to continue to history of this home.
