Welcome to peaceful country living just 15 miles and a 22 minute commute to downtown Rochester, MN. This property has so much character. The original farmhouse has had numerous updates and is tastefully decorated. It's so adorable and offers main floor living with one bedroom, a 3/4 bath and laundry all on the main floor. The kitchen has an island with seating, granite countertops and is very functional. There's a separate dining room perfect for larger gatherings. This home has updated vinyl windows, original trim and molding that adds so much charm. The living room is bright, sunny and spacious and has delightful finishing touches like crown molding and maple floors. Upstairs you'll find 3 bedrooms and a full bath. Extra storage areas and closets have been thoughtfully planned and added that make great use of the space. On the acreage you'll find a historic barn that has timber framing with post-and-beam construction. This traditional method, especially common in barns built over 100 years ago, uses large wooden timbers joined by hand carved joints and secured with wooden pegs. Although the barn needs refurbishing you'll see the nostalgic value of such an amazing structure. The garage is detached from the home and has a metal roof & easy-to-operate sliding doors. One of the larger outbuildings is actually income producing as boat and camper owners take advantage of storing their "toys" during the winter months. Another outbuilding is set up for a workshop. There is also pasture area. When you walk this land you are immediately taken back to days gone by. Close your eyes, inhale deeply, listen to the birds and forget the hustle and bustle of the city. Conveniently located off HWY 42 there's just .3 miles of unpaved road leading to this beautiful homestead.
