About This Home

As of May 2026

This beautifully renovated three-bedroom, two-bath farmhouse captures the warmth and authenticity of classic country architecture while delivering the comfort and flow today's buyers expect. Thoughtfully updated and impeccably maintained, the home blends timeless character with modern livability, easy, elegant, and inviting.At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen with a center island and plenty of room for a family great-room style experience, creating a natural hub for daily living and entertaining. A gracious living room with a wood burning fireplace, and a spacious dining room provide additional flexibility, ideal for both formal occasions and relaxed gatherings.The floor plan is as practical as it is appealing. One bedroom and a full bath are located on the main level, perfect for guests, multi-generational living, or a home office. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a well-appointed and updated bathroom, offering privacy and separation. Outdoors, a wrap-around porch invites morning coffee, afternoon reading, and evening conversation, while the large, flat lot offers a rare expanse of usable outdoor space. A generous grass lawn, charming greenhouse, and ample room for expansion create exceptional future potential, whether for a guest house, pool, pickleball court, or additional development.This is farmhouse living at its best: renovated yet authentic, comfortable yet refined, and set on flat land that offers numerous possibilities.
