Red Tail Cottage


Red Tail Cottage was built around 1885 and carefully renovated to retain rustic farmhouse charm while providing an open concept, 100% modern & efficient home with a chef’s kitchen. It has roughly 1,100 square feet of living space with the main floor consisting of the family room, kitchen, full bath and two bedrooms. Each bedroom has two windows for great light and summer breezes but of course there is central a/c should you desire conditioned space. The upstairs is one long carpeted room with a lower six foot ceiling, four windows and ample storage. It’s best described as a craft, home office or bonus room. A large mudroom off the back of the house invites people either up to the kitchen or down to the basement. The partial basement has a concrete floor, is clean, has full laundry and can be used for storage. Leave your car at home, the cottage is located in Dexter with an easy walk to downtown, schools and Busch’s for groceries.
