Description:
Country living at its finest with this six-bedroom farmhouse on 4 acres +/-. This home features awesome views from every window and a 16'x36' deck to enjoy the views. There is a detached three-car garage with two wall heaters and a 1/2 bath, a 38'x60' Barn with electricity, and an attached 14'x22' garage; there is also a 12'x32' Garden Shed. The seller has made many improvements, including all structures having new roofs 11 years ago, the home also having new decking, most windows were replaced, and the furnace in 2021. The water heater and most of the plumbing are newer. A few updates may be needed, but the majority have been done. Mishawaka is 40 minutes, Kalamazoo about an hour, St. Joe and Lake Michigan about 35 minutes, within 10 minutes of Dowagiac. Within 2 hours of Chicago Kincheloe Elementary School is just down the road. The property would make a nice hobby farm, possibly for horses or other animals, as the entire property is fenced and has gates for the driveways. The original portion of the home is believed to have been built around 1847 by John Gage. The partial basement is one of the cleanest and brightest you will see in this era of home and also has a wide stairway. State Snowmobile trails are just down the road, and many inland lakes with public boat launches aren't far. Sellers are also in possession of the original abstract and will pass that along to a buyer. There are also no neighbors directly next door, down the street, so it is like your own private and secluded paradise. There is a variety of trees and plantings. See pictures of the historic John Gage engraved rock that sits out by the road. There could possibly be a property split available with a survey and township approval.
