About this home

A Magical Country Cottage! This charming retreat is an intimate and cozy escape set among the trees and filled with history. It is rumored to have been the home of the blacksmith for the Barnum & Bailey circus in 1899. The home features 1-2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, a completely remodeled kitchen with high-end appliances, white cabinets and quartz countertops. The luxurious full bath features a soaking tub and is also completely renovated. Imagine waking to the gentle chirping of birds and enjoying your morning coffee on the deck or screened-in porch while bathed in the soft glow of natural light filtering through the trees. The rustic barn hints at a simpler time and offers endless possibilities, from a creative studio to additional storage or even a quaint guest space. This property is more than a home; it's an opportunity to embrace a tranquil lifestyle!

According to the tax records, the home was built in 1900 but there are some historical references to 1899 being the year it was built.
