Key Facts
Description
Welcome to 6285 E 28th St N, a peaceful two-story farmhouse just north of Newton, set on nearly an acre (.91 acres) of quiet countryside. This 2-bedroom home features a fully renovated main floor, including a spacious new kitchen, a large living room, and a 3/4 bathroom with laundry. The main level has been completely rewired and is filled with natural light, thanks to a beautiful south-facing bay window. Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms that have not been updated, offering an opportunity to personalize the space to your liking. There is a 2nd story deck that offers excellent views to the south and is great for viewing the 4th of July fireworks! Outside, the property includes a massive 40x63 steel utility building built in 1996. A portion of the building is already sectioned off as an insulated shop area (including a furnace), while the remaining space is wide open; ideal for storing equipment, toys, machinery, or even converting to fit your needs. A detached 2-car garage adds even more utility. The TOT is completed and seller will install a new septic tank prior to closing. Propane tank is owned. Property is being sold in "As Is" condition with new septic installed on 8/11/25. If you're looking for a peaceful rural setting with updated living space and serious outbuilding potential, this one is a must-see.
