From the Zillow listing:

 

Home has always functioned as a three bedroom home but the septic permit says that septic system is for a one bedroom unit. Many things have been upgraded in the home and the home is in average overall condition. The is a strong stream flowing on the property but home is not in the flood plain. Owners says stream stays around the same level and flow year round which would explain why it fed a local mill in the early 1900’s. Homes water source was always a spring which is no longer available. A new well will need to be installed.
