About this home
Every home has a story, but few houses offer a century of chapters. For the first time in four generations, this storied farmhouse is ready to begin a new legacy. Set upon 2.5 scenic acres in Sugar Creek Twp, this isn't just a property; it is a time capsule of rural heritage, a ''bit of a project'' for the visionary, and a sanctuary for those who believe that a home's soul is just as important as its walls & floors. We won't sugarcoat it: this home will require a ''labor of love.'' With some deferred maintenance and the need for updating (1983 was its last major remodel) it is the definition of a ''diamond in the rough''. The home contains the craftsmanship that has all but vanished from modern builds, featuring original woodwork that remains a hallmark of the interior. The expansive 14-room layout, sits atop a flagstone foundation and a partial basement. While the home celebrates its past, it has been updated with essential modern conveniences like central cooling and a cozy propane fireplace. After a day of restoring the interior, you can retreat to the private hot tub—a surprising and welcome luxury. The property is a hobby farmer's dream, featuring an array of functional outbuildings including an 864SF barn, a 1,450SF poultry house, and a massive 2,320SF enclosed pole barn. Perhaps the most enchanting aspect of this property is the history provided by the current Owner's POA. Growing up, they recall a childhood defined by a gentle, protective ''spirit friend''— who would sit beside them at the kitchen table and color, occasionally helping choose the perfect crayon and softly humming along to childhood tunes. This farmstead is looking for more than just a buyer; it is looking for a steward. If you are a dreamer, a restorer, or someone who finds beauty in the patina of time and the whisper of a song, this is the project you've been waiting for. Bring your tools, your imagination, and perhaps a fresh box of crayons. Your future—and a piece of history—is waiting.
