Love the old barn! Circa 1900. On 13 acres in Ohio. $294,900

June 8, 2024

I love the old barn! This one has some nice acreage with it! The house was built in 1900. It is located on 13.68 acres in Springfield, Ohio. The house features a covered front porch, hardwood floors, transom windows, baseboards and a spacious kitchen. If it were my house, I would change out some of the newer flooring. Hopefully there are still hardwood floors underneath. There are multiple outbuildings. Five bedrooms, one bathroom and 2,762 square feet. $294,900

From the Zillow listing:

 

You’ll be singing “Over the river and through the woods to Grandmother’s house we go” as you drive down the lane to this wonderful country property! Full disclosure: No grandma, but there are some woods, and Mad River’s not too far away! Set on 15.24 private acres, this farmstead has been lovingly maintained and nurtured by the current owners who hate to leave it, but are relocating out of the area. The delightful farmhouse and grounds are reminiscent of a Thomas Kinkade painting, from the fabulous wraparound porch with wheelchair ramp, to the many traditional tall double hung windows that flood the home with natural light. As you enter, you’ll be greeted by one of 2 staircases leading to the 2nd floor. The Parlor with original hardwood flooring flows nicely into the large formal dining room; The high ceilings are terrific! The large eat-in country Kitchen is clearly the hub of the home with tons of cupboards, counter space, and 2 big pantries! Just off the kitchen is the Laundry Room that leads to a great mudroom with storage, and doors to the cellar, attached shed (chicken house), and outside. A main-level bedroom and full bath complete the first floor. Upstairs there are 4 huge bedrooms, and a bonus room that could be a 6th bedroom, nursery, office, you name it! A third staircase leads to the fantastic attic with many possibilities, and has an industrial fan that helps cool the home in the Summer months. Views from every room in the house are of the expansive acreage with beautiful trees, gardens and plantings galore! The old barn has electricity and a water spigot, and there’s a concrete block shed for more storage! 12 tillable acres, 11.5 farmed by a local farmer yields $2000 per year in revenue. The list of improvements is too long to mention here, but is attached to the listing. A HUGE plus, you are only 5 minutes from N. Bechtel Ave’s shopping and restaurants. Schedule your showing today for a chance to own this spectacular farm property!
