If you are looking for peaceful country living just 5 minutes from I-70, this is the jackpot. This well kept country farmhouse has all the big upgrades needed while still possessing the charm of an era gone by. Sitting on 4 sprawling acres, this property has plenty of outside space that also includes a barn, a chicken coupe and an oversized 2 car garage. The house had a new roof installed in 2020, and the garage and barn roof replaced in 2022-2023. New JeldWen windows were installed in the home as well in 2022. A new water softener was added in 2026 and pressure tank in 2022. The bathrooms were both updated in 2021, as well as new pex plumbing throughout, in 2021 as well. A new electric service was installed in 2017 and a well pump in 2018. The entire basement was professionally waterproofed in 2021, and the house and garage were nicely upgraded with new siding in 2025. The washer and dryer, which are on the second floor, also stay with the house and were purchased new in 2024. This house is a 3 bedroom, although only listed as 2 on the auditors sight. In addition to the incredible country charm and countless upgrades this home possesses, it is also located in the desirable Southwest Licking School district. I would not wait on a house sitting on 4 acres, in this condition, at a price like this!
