Land with Home for Sale in Wooster, Ohio
1817 Fox Lake Rd, Wooster, OH 44691
Own a piece of Wayne County history! Welcome to the historic Pioneer House, a charming 1880 Victorian recognized by the Wayne County Historical Society in 1979! Situated on over 2 acres with a beautiful wooded backdrop, this 3-bedroom, 3-full-bath home offers historic character with modern updates. Classic Victorian architecture, decorative exterior trim, and a covered front porch welcome you inside, where impressive 10-foot ceilings, 8-foot doorways, and beautiful woodwork showcase the home's character. The spacious living room features a brick propane fireplace, built-in shelving and cabinetry, and warm wood accents. A separate parlor with its own front entrance offers additional versatility. A brand-new main-floor full bathroom, completed in 2026, features modern finishes, a stylish vanity, sliding barn door, and spacious walk-in shower with a rainfall showerhead. Recent improvements include fresh paint and new carpeting in the living room, stairway, and all 3 bedrooms. Nearly all windows were replaced with vinyl windows in 2022, except for a couple in the kitchen. New glass block windows were installed in 2025, and the exterior wood trim was power washed and painted that same year. Geothermal heating and cooling is another great feature! The home was relocated in 1970, providing a newer foundation rather than the original 1880s sandstone foundation walls. Outside, enjoy over 2 acres with numerous mature trees and a peaceful wooded setting. An old sugar shack, previously used for maple syrup production, adds another piece of history. This structure is in significant disrepair, is unsafe to enter, and is not considered usable. A 1-year home warranty is included for added peace of mind!
