About this home
You have dreams of the simple life. Where you can build that dream, or that business. Something legacy-worthy. Holding down that Homestead now, and maybe in the generation to come. A traditional farm life, or a tool to create your own vision. This 45-acre farm in Dorset, Ohio may be the beginning. Several years ago the vintage farmhouse underwent significant custom renovation and update. This comfortable three bed/ 2 bath residence offers an open kitchen and large living room with plentiful natural light. Two wood stoves. Newer roof, all vinyl siding and vinyl windows. New carpet on the main floor. Ceramic tile floors and expanded entry way. Matching custom front door and banister wood tone. All new electric throughout, and new panel. The electrical service on-site is robust. Each outbuilding is equipped with its own sub-panel. The area contiguous to the house and buildings is comprised of an estimated 7.25 acres - including three ponds, strategically tiered with overflow drains, as well as an emergency fire hook-up. The large traditional barn and the expansion to this building offer over 5,400 feet of space for garage use, workshop/ creative space, livestock, and the arched ceiling loft with 19' ceilings. The garage and workshop areas offer 2 Reznor heaters and a wood stove. 60 x 40 pole barn equipment building with power and water. Another specialty business or hobby building offering almost 1,000 feet of space for tooling/ precision work or office. Versatile and unique. And then there's the land... 37 acres of your respite in the wilderness. Young to mid-life growth to easily groom trails, or clear for crop. Contoured topography with natural drainage toward a creek/ watershed area at the far northern end. Majestic beauty, and a rare opportunity.
