Have a look at this shabby but adorable historic schoolhouse that recently popped up for sale in rural Wisconsin.
Dating back to 1876, this former one-room school is located on an acre lot in the small town of Sharon in southern Wisconsin.
If you are a fan of vintage school house memorabilia, this one will make the grade.
Yes, it is a little rough – at almost 150 years old, and nary an upgrade, what can you expect?
But it is like stepping back in time!
The wood stove is original to the building.
The listing says the contents of the schoolhouse are negotiable. But at a list price of only $45,000, it won’t break the bank.
Granted, the property doesn’t have a well or septic, but that’s part of the old school house charm.
In 1876, the students simply used the loo out back.
The listing suggests some use options: “Think museum or gift shop, rehab to an Air B & B, or use the property for a new residence.”
House Crazy Sarah has another suggestion for use: filming location!
It does have that Little House On The Prairie / Anne of Green Gables vibe to it.
One more quaint touch to this nostalgic parcel:
It’s very own matching mailbox!
How sweet!

Loveliness in every inch of the place! I agree filming here – yes!
