Property Description

If you've been searching for a country property where you can grow your own food, spend summer afternoons by the pond, work on projects in the shop, run a business from home, and still be within an easy drive of everyday conveniences, this is the kind of opportunity that's increasingly difficult to find. Dating to approximately 1844 and known locally as the Pioneer Home, this historic Metamora property offers more than 180 years of character on approximately 2.25 acres. Local historical records recognize the home for its early role in the community, including its historic cistern and distinction as an early area home with running water and electricity. One of the property's most unique advantages is its current C-3 Commercial zoning, creating a rare opportunity to live and operate a business from the same property, subject to applicable zoning requirements. For buyers who prefer agricultural use, the property can be converted back to AG zoning; however, obtaining C-3 zoning again could be much more difficult, making the current designation especially valuable for entrepreneurs, tradespeople, makers, collectors, or anyone seeking a true live/work setup. Inside, original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, abundant natural light, and a flexible four-bedroom layout preserve the warmth of an old farmhouse while offering the space today's lifestyle demands. A main-floor bedroom and full bath add versatility, while the large kitchen features granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, an oversized island, and pantry storage. Multiple living spaces provide room for an office, playroom, reading room, or additional gathering areas, while the wood-burning stove creates a warm, inviting atmosphere through the colder months. Outside is where the lifestyle really comes alive. The stocked pond includes a beach area and can be replenished through a dedicated pump and line from the nearby creek when conditions allow. Spend summer afternoons swimming, fishing, or gathering by the water, then finish the day watching the sunset across the property. Established garden beds, mature pear, peach, cherry, plum and multiple apple trees, along with grapevines suited for winemaking, make this an incredible setup for gardening, homesteading, or simply enjoying the land. Multiple outbuildings add even more flexibility. A powered approximately 40x40 building provides substantial storage, workshop, or potential business space, while the property's original barn has been preserved on a newer foundation. Additional metal-roofed structures provide room for equipment, inventory, hobbies, or storage. The oversized approximately 30x60 garage offers even more space for vehicles, projects, entertaining, or a home-based operation. A 20,000-watt whole-house generator, three owned propane tanks, multiple heating options, a high-efficiency boiler reportedly installed in 2022, a 2024 water heater, and a new septic system installed in November 2024 add important functionality. The property also features an extensive water filtration system, two wells, and the historic cistern. Metamora is only minutes away, with Swanton approximately 10 minutes, Sylvania roughly 15-20 minutes, and Adrian approximately 20-25 minutes away. This isn't another cookie-cutter property. It's a rare chance to combine home, land, history, recreation, outbuildings, and commercial potential in one remarkably flexible setting.
