About This Home

As of October 2025

This 1852 farmhouse is nestled on a quiet road in rural Effingham showcasing historical character with wide board pine floors throughout, 9 rooms and 4 fireplaces. An attached heated work shop provides space for hobbies, projects or additional storage. Set on a beautiful partially wooded lot with a mature apple tree and established garden areas. A highlight of the property is a large barn which includes 2 horse stalls, tack room and a full loft. While the home needs repairs and renovations, it presents a unique opportunity to bring your vision to turn it into the country home of your dreams. The house will most-likely need a rehab loan or cash.
