Welcome to 397 Angora Rd., a historic home built in 1836 that originally served as a schoolhouse before being converted into a residence. Situated on a 2.25-acre corner lot in Alsace Township, the property features a stream, garden shed, detached 3-car garage, and a driveway with parking for five or more vehicles. The first floor offers a living room, dining area with hardwood flooring, kitchen with breakfast counter, double sink, dishwasher hookup, laundry room, full bath, and a wood-burning stove. The second floor features one oversized bedroom with crawl space storage. Originally designed as a two-bedroom home, the layout can be converted back to two bedrooms if desired.
