Full of rustic charm and surrounded by breathtaking countryside, the home provides a comfortable base for farm life, weekend escapes, or future vision.

Improvements include a large red dairy barn, two-story workshop, poultry house, and multiple additional barns and storage buildings, making this an ideal setup for livestock, equipment, hobby farming, equestrian use, or workshop space. A truly special feature is the original log cabin, a rare nod to the property's early history that offers endless potential for restoration, creative use, or simply preserving a remarkable piece of Knox County heritage. Nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the peaceful creek, wooded areas, abundant wildlife, and a secluded camping area tucked among the trees--perfect for quiet evenings under the stars. Conveniently located with commercially zoned frontage on US-36 and frontage on Thayer Road, this property enjoys a highly desirable setting near the Knox County Horse Park, Thayer Ridge Park, and the Heart of Ohio Trail, offering quick access to horseback riding, biking, hiking, and outdoor recreation.
