About this home
OFFER IN HAND- Highest and Best Deadline 5/22 9pm!!!
Charm, History, Tranquility, and Nature is what you'll find at 809 Water St.
This unique farmhouse sits on a picturesque, relatively flat 3.35-acre lot, offering endless opportunities to garden, entertain, relax, or even add a pool—all while enjoying serene country views. An additional parcel across the street provides even more flexibility for gardening, raising chickens, small-scale farming, or planting fruit trees. A standout feature of the property is the impressive 25' x 41' barn, showcasing true craftsmanship with original timber beams dating back to the late 1800s. The upper level offers a spacious area ideal for gatherings, storage, hay or equipment, while the lower level includes two parking bays used as a garage, a workbench, and plenty of room for a workshop or hobby space right off the driveway that gives space for plenty of parking.
Adding to the charm, a historic, no-longer-active railroad runs along the road, creating a scenic and nostalgic piece of Perry Township history.
Enter through the covered rear patio into a bright 10' x 21' sunroom, then into the heart of the home—a kitchen featuring ample hard wood cabinetry, beautiful wood beams, and closet storage. The main level also includes a full bathroom, a comfortable living room with hardwood floors beneath the carpeting, and a convenient mudroom/laundry area with easy access to a clean, well-maintained basement.
Upstairs, you’ll find two bedrooms, a spacious full bathroom, and additional attic storage.
The property also includes multiple sheds and mature landscaping.
Being sold AS-IS, this home presents a wonderful opportunity for buyers to add their own style and updates to a lovingly maintained country retreat.
