It is approximately 2600 SF on an open floor plan with 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, den, enclosed porch, and full basement with walk-in cooler. Solid walnut wood doors throughout, kitchen has cherry cabinets, hardwood floors in several rooms, extra deep cedar-lined closets and fireplace in living room. Much of the wood in the house was harvested from the Bloomfield Farm. There are some rough pole structures and a 10,000 bu. grain bin on the property.
