About This Home
Nestled in the desirable countryside of Kims Cove, this charming 1920s two-story farmhouse invites you to embrace a simpler, more intentional way of living. With bead board ceilings, original wood floors, and a sense of history woven into every detail, this home balances timeless character with thoughtful updates. The renovated galley kitchen blends old and new with butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and fresh cabinetry. Gather in the dining room that flows into the cozy living room, where a wood stove and built-in bookshelves create the perfect backdrop for quiet evenings or lively conversation. A main-level bedroom provides easy accessibility, while upstairs you’ll find two spacious bedrooms and a sunroom retreat filled with natural light. Ample storage is available in the walk-in attic and efficient mudroom with laundry hookup. Period details shine in the black-and-white tiled bath featuring a salvaged corner sink, while modern updates—such as a metal roof (less than 10 years old), July 2025 heat pump, many vinyl replacement windows, updated electric, septic tail lines, a five-year-old well pump, and an 80-gallon water heater—bring peace of mind. The property is a homesteader’s dream: a root cellar for storing canned goods, a double-dug garden ready for your harvest, and a chicken coop with fenced lot. Native plants and natural landscaping create a serene backdrop for yard games, al fresco meals, or storytelling around the fire pit. If you’re looking for a home that offers both history and self-sufficient living, this Kims Cove farmhouse delivers it all. Pre-Inspected!
