About This Home
Some homes walk into your life quietly...
And some greet you with a presence you feel in your chest. Set on 5 private acres in Glenville, framed by four stately white columns and wrapped in the charm of the late 1800s, this property has a way of pulling you in before you even reach the porch. It's part farmhouse, part timeless colonial, part storybook retreat — and entirely unforgettable. Step inside and you'll feel the centuries of character, but also the ease of thoughtful, modern updates. Warm woodwork, French doors, sun-washed rooms, and a remodeled sunroom with a wet bar create a space that's equal parts peaceful and playful — the kind of home that adjusts to whatever your lifestyle asks of it. The land... oh, the land.
Two shimmering ponds, open meadow, forest beyond, wildlife moving like the world is slowed down just for you. It's the sort of setting where mornings feel different — softer, deeper. A place where you can watch seasons shift from every window. For the dreamers, builders, creators, growers:
This property comes with a heated workshop, a detached garage with a bonus room, a she-shed straight out of a Pinterest scroll, a greenhouse, garden boxes, and even an authentic root cellar. Everything you need to build... restore... tinker... or simply breathe. Upstairs, you'll find four generous bedrooms, two full baths, and spaces that feel like they've held laughter and stories for generations. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room — the perfect winter companion — while thoughtful systems updates (roof, HVAC, water filtration, windows, and more) bring comfort and peace of mind. Whether you're dreaming of a homestead, a home-based business, a retreat-style lifestyle, or simply a place with soul... this property is ready. It's not just a house.
It's acreage.
It's quiet.
It's heritage.
It's possibility.
It's a feeling. And the moment you arrive, you'll understand. 424 Gower Road Seller Upgrades & Improvements Updated front porch
