The land already offers an incredible start w/ established raspberries, blueberries, two pear trees, one peach tree, two productive apple trees, a large garden area, & possibly blackberries. A farm pond adds to the charm & usefulness of the property, & there is also a dug well available for gardening. Move right in and enjoy the the property's abundance, or keep adding to your own homesteading dream. The barn previously housed 8 cows & offers lots of possibilities with workshop space, hayloft storage over the garage & barn, & even a bar area that could become entertaining space, hobby space, or whatever fits your vision.
