About this home

Welcome to Barss Corner Road! Nestled among the trees and whispering pines, this charming 1.5-storey farmhouse sits on a level 3/4-acre lot surrounded by peaceful nature. Conveniently located just 10min from New Germany and nestled between Lake Peter and William, amenities are within easy reach. Includes deeded lake access, perfect for boating, swimming or kayaking! Or a 40min drive to the ocean and Crescent Beach. Inside, the home offers an open-concept layout with 8-foot ceilings and plenty of space for family living. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs which could benefit from some updating and one large picture-window bedroom on the main level, as well as a separate office ideal for working from home. With a few adjustments the upstairs can be easily separated into a mother-in-law or rental suite with separate entrance. With approximately 1600sqft of living space, there's room for the whole family to make it their own. 3 heat pumps provide efficient heating and cooling throughout the year, while a wood stove offers cozy warmth on cooler days. The kitchen is equipped with a new fridge and stove. A new drilled well and new metal roof offer peace of mind for years to come. The original dug well also remains functional, and blown-in insulation has been added to the attic, house and unfinished basement. The basement includes a woodworking shop for hobbies and projects. Outside, the spacious property has room to play, garden, relax, and enjoy country living. 2 apple trees, a plum tree, blueberry and raspberry bushes add to the charm, while a double carport provides convenient covered parking and an outdoor sitting area. Wood siding and a front porch complete its warm country feel. Move-in ready with furnishings included, priced to sell with a quick move-in date available, this is a wonderful opportunity for a family moving to the area. If you've been searching for a solid home with character and charm, Barss Corner is ready to welcome you home. By appointment only.
