Old Order Amish Farm
There are about 98 acres here, of which up to 62 can be cropped and another 12 pastured. The remainder, 25 is wooded. Streams flow through that area. There are 2 farm ponds as well as 3 dug wells and a 225 drilled well (no pump running on this) - plenty of good water. It has over 2000 of road frontage and another 1450 on an abandoned road.
The home is 3 years old and the main barns just a bit older. All are exceptionally well- built. The home sits just behind a small stand of sugar maple and large white pines, and has 2304 ft2 of living apace, with a full attic and a 4 room dry basement. Real 3/4hardwood floors are throughout.

The home is 3 years old and the main barns just a bit older. All are exceptionally well- built. The home sits just behind a small stand of sugar maple and large white pines, and has 2304 ft2 of living apace, with a full attic and a 4 room dry basement. Real 3/4hardwood floors are throughout.

Also a "bake room", occasionally used for large-scale baking. Above are 7 bedrooms, middling in size, One does not have the sheetrock fully complete. In the front is a broad porch.
The dairy barn has a series of 4 large pens, a milkhouse and a 12 stall parlor for dairy goats.It is 38x80 and has a large drive-in loft. The horse barn is 38x64, with a partial loft, 7 box stalls, 1 single and 3 double stalls, plus tack room & watering and grooming area. These buildings are outstanding and anyone should be proud to own them.
In addition is a 12x20' shed used to house buggies, which could be used for small machinery, 2 ice houses, a 12x20' chicken coop and a 2 story shop, ~30x44'.
The price was drastically lowered to $392500 and taxes are around $4750. It is on ag value assessment. They are hoping for a Spring closing so they do not need to have their children change school. Adjoining it is a 14 acre property, recently surveyed, with home and barn that will be offered for sale at a reasonable figure, giving you the chance for a family compound or housing for your help.
A word on Old Order Amish homesteads. Their religion does not permit Sunday showings. Please take this into account. Also, there is no electricity, even though the wires are right there at the road. And no bathrooms, septic, central heat or modern kitchens. The home is being comfortably lived in but the siding has not been installed over the Tyvek wrap. Also much of the trim is unfinished. Nevertheless, it presents a very welcoming appearance, both inside and out..
