Property Description
ATTENTION all buyers who have a vision of homesteading and nurturing their own 20 acre parcel. Don't miss the opportunity @ 198 Mill Rd. This property has manicured trails, fenced in gardens, historic elements with modern construction features. The new homeowner for this rural home will appreciate being hidden just a short drive down a gravel road that owns property on both sides of the road, one side with the Pine River flowing through it and the other with gardens, fruit trees, a historic barn, a newer garage and a home that originated in approximately 1870. This charming home has a blend of whimsy & classic details. There are historical elements sprinkled throughout the original home and modern construction. Custom details consist of hand-hewn cedar shake exterior, a 3 story "lookout", reclaimed stained glass from a Barryton church, woodwork from the old post office in Blanchard and hand-crafted woodwork like hardwood floors with inlaid details and veneer paneling.

Supplements
Original structure dates back to the 1800's but home addition was added with bedrooms and over 2,000 sq ft of space in 2008 and detached garage is less than 10 yrs old. This property is a great opportunity for the buyer who wants to relocate to the Blanchard area.
