About This Home

As of May 2025

Perched atop a gentle knoll, this farmhouse is a story waiting to be told-rooted in purpose, crafted with care, and standing as a testament to timeless design. Built with intent by its original owner, every beam, every board, every view whispers of thoughtful planning and unwavering pride. Set on just over 11 pristine acres, the land stretches out in quiet harmony, rolling and lush, a canvas of natural beauty that shifts with the seasons. A creek runs along the back of the property, adding to the serenity of this countryside retreat. The well-maintained garden offers space to grow fresh produce, creating the perfect homestead setting. Inside, you will find three generously sized bedrooms and two spacious bathrooms. The extra-wide hallway enhances the sense of openness, while the primary suite features two separate closets, offering ample storage and personal space. Every inch of this home was built with intention, providing room to breathe and live with ease. Impeccably maintained, the home has received thoughtful updates, including a new roof (2021), new air conditioning (2021), and a new well pump (2021). The covered front porch, refreshed with new concrete (2022), invites you to sit, unwind, and take in the peaceful surroundings. Beyond the home, the property comes with a 10x16 insulated workshop with power and water that is ideal for projects, while the 24x70 barn provides ample space, with a concrete-floored first bay, power, and water-ready to store all of your farm equipment, or even a creative workspace. For those embracing a self-sufficient way of life, five separate enclosed chicken coops are ready for your chickens! Completely all-electric, with a well-maintained original septic system, this property is designed for efficiency and sustainability. Whether you dream of a hobby farm, an equestrian retreat, or simply a peaceful escape, this home and its land offer an unmatched opportunity to embrace country living at its finest.
