Probably the water for your pond comes from drainage from the surrounding corn fields. In a rainy year, it will overflow a bit, and in a drought, it will shrink, but you have a pond! Digging, lining, and then filling a pond or stock tank is really expensive.
Just for asthetics, I'd put a concrete slab and a "pergola" type roofing over the area where the plastic chairs are. You'd have a patio and there would be less of a "cut off" look to that area of the house.
Someone has upgraded a few things since 1040--those are not 1940 windows, and the kitchen cabinets, patio doors, and roof look much more recent. I think you've found a gem--a little paint, perhaps removing some paneling, and landscaping and you will have a wonderful home!
