The four, second-level bedrooms offer wood floors, and they share a full bathroom with tub/shower and vanity, as well as a walkup to the attic. A modern addition, made to look old, off the back of the home features 2 of the bedrooms on the second level as well as a second kitchen with wood ceiling and a spacious dining room with wainscoting. The rear of this home offers a large stone paver patio with a stone fireplace. Ever been told you should live in a barn? This completely remodeled, converted barn is a remarkable conversion, boasting wood floors that flow throughout the 2-story great room, and loft area, complemented by a vaulted cathedral wood ceiling with beams and skylights. The floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace is a center piece of this structure, with a heat-saving wood burning insert, is flanked by large picture windows, offering dual sliding doors to outdoor patio.

The main level of this converted barn also has a laundry room with soapstone farm sink and countertop, slate tile floor, recessed lighting, wood molding, and trap door to basement. You will also find a convenient powder room with slate tile floor and pedestal sink. A spiral staircase leads you to the loft area overlooking the great room where the bedroom offers a full bathroom with tub/shower, vanity with granite top, and extra storage. Outside this converted barn is an iconic old stone well. A 2-car detached garage features a metal roof and wood siding, a double bay door, and walk-up second level is just steps from the barn. Another full-size house with a covered front porch is just steps away from the other two residences.

Residential rental projections for these homes are approximately $90,000+ per year if you are a savvy real estate investor or looking to park your 1031 Exchange funds.
