About This Home

As of May 2024

Embrace a pastoral paradise with this enchanting property, inviting you to bring your horses & indulge in country living at its finest! Nestled on nearly 20 acres beneath the sprawling canopy of ancient live oaks, this classic working farmhouse offers a harmonious blend of rustic charm & modern amenities. The landscape is adorned with a 2 acre serene pond, thoughtfully designed paddocks, and a barn that whispers of equestrian dreams. The interior boasts wide-open spaces that mirror the vastness of the surrounding acreage. A sun-drenched den becomes the heart of the home, complete with a fireplace that exudes warmth and comfort. A wall of windows not only bathes the space in natural light but also frames picturesque views of the verdant outdoors. The kitchen emerges as a culinary haven, boasting yet another fireplace that infuses the heart of the home with its timeless allure. Bedrooms adorned with wide plank floors provide cozy sanctuaries, and the decadent bathrooms offer a retreat into luxury. Discover your favorite vantage points to witness nature's artistry - whether it's the gentle caress of the morning sun or the vibrant hues of a sunset. As if the home's allure weren't enough, an expansive detached garage stands ready to accommodate your hobbies, toys, & even your RV. Further enhancing this idyllic retreat, you'll find a covered arena for equestrian pursuits, a horseshoeing stall for tending to your equine companions, & a pond dock with a covered bench swing that invites you to embrace the tranquility of waterside living. Escape the urban bustle and the encroachment of development, and journey to the heart of north Covington, where a simpler, more fulfilling way of life awaits. Relish farm-fresh eggs, cultivate your own vegetable gardens, and cherish the company of your beloved animals right at your doorstep. This is more than a home; it's an invitation to rediscover the joys of nature, the warmth of community, & the timeless pleasures of a life well-lived.
