Step Back in Time & Bring Your Vision to Life! Originally built in 1869 as a one-room schoolhouse, this unique property has been thoughtfully converted into a two-bedroom, one-bath home, offering an incredible opportunity to own a piece of local history while creating something truly special. The original brick structure showcases beautiful historic character, impressive craftsmanship, and large windows that fill the interior with natural light. The home's solid construction provides an excellent foundation for renovation and restoration. A rear addition currently serves as a generous mudroom with laundry hookups. Best kept secret is the walk-up attic, where an expansive semi-unfinished space awaits your imagination. With its generous size and the dramatic roofline and windows, the attic could be transformed into an amazing additional living area, studio, office, or bonus space. The home is equipped with a newer propane furnace and central air, along with a private well and septic system. The property offers the rare combination of historic charm, substantial potential, and the opportunity to create a home that is uniquely your own. If you have been looking for a restoration project with character and possibilities, this former schoolhouse deserves a closer look. The structure is sound, the history is remarkable, and the potential is waiting to be unlocked! Being sold ''as-is'' with no repairs.
