Dress for weather, the home is heated. But there's 2 garages and a 3rd outbuilding that aren't heated. This won't be tidy, diggers enjoy! Really, really watch your STEP inside and out. If the lawn and land is snow covered Friday, there are walnuts hidden underneath.  Large 2-story home and buildings on nearly 2 acres of land.  Be prepared for steps, most items inside home are up or down, 14 steps to 2nd floor.  NO restroom facility at this one folks, sorry.

Estate Tag Sale, where you come inside heated home, browse, shop and buy at your leisure.
