Property Description

There are homes you walk through, and there are homes you experience. Set on 2.15 breathtaking, park-like acres, this beautifully reimagined 1944 farmhouse is one of those rare properties where history, craftsmanship and setting come together to create something truly special. Follow the paved drive past hand laid rock work, mature trees, abundant flowers and beautifully established landscaping, and the property begins to reveal itself. A peaceful pond is tucked into the grounds, while approximately half of the acreage is served by in-ground irrigation helping create a landscape that feels more like a private park than a backyard. Inside, 2,723 square feet offers 3 bedrooms, 2½ baths and a wonderfully distinctive floor plan shaped by the home's farmhouse beginnings. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level, while upstairs you'll find additional living space offering room to gather, retreat, work or simply unwind. A wood-burning fireplace brings warmth and character to the heart of the home. The extensive remodel was approached with quality in mind. High-end updates, thoughtful finishes and craftsmanship can be found throughout, while the home's original character was never erased. The result is a home that feels refined without losing the warmth, personality and delightful uniqueness that makes an old farmhouse unforgettable. Step outside and the story continues. An original barn remains in use with two stalls, a wonderful piece of the property's history and a reminder of its rural roots. This is not a cookie-cutter home. It's a place to wander beneath the trees, tend a garden, listen to the water by the pond, gather around a crackling fire and watch the seasons change across your own 2.15 acres. Historic farmhouse character. Beautifully elevated finishes. A storybook setting.
