Property Description
Known as Hickory Haven, located in the heart of Ohio's wine country, this remarkable 20.62-acre energy-resilient homestead estate sits at the end of a ¾-mile private driveway surrounded by mature woods, two ponds, orchard plantings, and scenic walking trails. Perfect for a possible winery, Air BNB, or BNB! The Log Plus home is designed for multi-generational living, offering two primary suites on separate levels, four bathrooms, a home office, full walkout basement, and a rare two-room root cellar for food storage. The walkout lower level also includes a home fitness area. The property features a 48-volt photovoltaic solar system with lithium battery storage, inverter management, and generator backup, professionally installed then maintained by Yoder Solar. Portions of the home remain connected to utility power, creating a flexible hybrid energy system. Primary heat is supplied by a Crown Royal outdoor wood/coal furnace (2023) with 20-year warranty, located under a 26×24 covered pavilion with concrete slab and electricity, while a high-efficiency IBC propane boiler provides backup heat and domestic hot water. Water is supplied by a private well with Kinetico Sentry open-air purification, Culligan softener, Pentair pressure tank, and reverse-osmosis drinking stations. Additional features include a barn with chicken coop and fenced run, pasture for livestock, solar-powered Quonset building, beehives, mini orchard with peach, apple and plum trees, two ponds, woodland trails, bird sanctuary area, Softub hot tub, and wraparound deck underplanted with 2 heritage fragrant lilac bushes. The property also includes a dedicated ham radio communications room with professionally installed 2-meter antenna, a small caretaker log cabin near the driveway entrance, and a treehouse with professionally constructed base. A rare opportunity to own a developed private homestead combining independence, natural beauty, and modern infrastructure.
