This modern farmhouse is the epitome of rustic charm! Situated on 4.2 acres of scenic countryside, this 1949 sq ft home is like a page out of the Fixer Upper design book with repurposed antique doors, shiplap walls, subway tile, open-beam cathedral ceilings, and rough-hewn hardwood floors. You'll be the first to cook in the newly-remodeled kitchen, with white cabinets, quartz countertops, subway tile backsplash, and white farmhouse sink. The center of the home is a large great room, with a pellet stove and wooden French doors that give you access to the outside. An expansive wooden deck extends around the entire home. Upstairs studio with its own outside entrance. The home features central vac, 22 KW whole-house standby generator, 9.2 KW owned solar system, tankless water heater. Detached garage tall enough to store your RV, and adjoining workshop. 2019 42-ft 5th wheel guest unit is part of sale. Space for a vineyard or horses, two private wells, and stunning views.
