Description

Tucked away at the end of a private, dead-end road & surrounded by nearly 10 acres, this 1800s farmhouse offers the kind of setting that’s getting harder & harder to find—private, peaceful & truly off the beaten path. While the home retains the character of its farmhouse roots, a comprehensive 2009 renovation brought it into a new era. This wasn’t simply a cosmetic remodel. The home was jacked up & leveled, deconstructed down to the studs & thoughtfully put back together with new wiring, plumbing, drywall, kitchen & baths. Even the former dirt-floor basement was improved with a concrete floor. More recent updates include a roof less than 6 years old, a new water heater, & a new septic system scheduled to be installed before closing. Inside, you’ll find generously sized bedrooms, formal dining space to host large family gatherings & a spacious kitchen. Split HVAC units & original hardwood floors bring warmth & character to the upper level. The upstairs bath features a walk-in shower, while a versatile bonus room with a stackable washer & dryer easily doubles as a home office, hobby room or additional flex space. ~6 acres are currently cash-cropped, with the income historically helping offset the property's taxes & insurance. Start your mornings on the covered front porch, watch the storms roll across the countryside, or enjoy the changing seasons from the heated back porch. Pre-inspected and ready for its next chapter.
