Step into a home where timeless charm meets modern comfort, this beautifully preserved 1920 farmhouse is the kind of property you don’t just visit… you feel. Thoughtfully updated while honoring its original character, every detail invites you to slow down, breathe deeper, and imagine life a little differently. Set on 2 private acres, your own slice of heaven, this property offers the perfect blend of peace, space, and possibility. Picture mornings on the expansive front porch with coffee in hand, and evenings unwinding on the wraparound patio, partially screened for those perfect, breezy nights. Inside, warm hardwood floors flow throughout, complementing the home’s classic farmhouse charm. With 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, the layout is both cozy and functional, ideal for everyday living or weekend escapes. And while the home embraces its history, you’ll appreciate the peace of mind that comes with key updates already taken care of, including a new HVAC system (2021), a new well (2022), and a recently pumped septic (2024). The sellers have also purchased brand new kitchen cabinetry along with a gas stove, dishwasher, and microwave, all ready for you and included with the sale, giving you a head start on creating your dream kitchen. Outside is where this property truly shines. A detached garage with its own office space creates the perfect setup for remote work, a studio, or a business. An additional outbuilding offers endless flexibility, home gym, workshop, creative space… whatever fits your lifestyle. There’s ample parking, wide open yard space, and serene wooded views that make this property feel like your own private retreat. And yet, despite the privacy and tranquility, you’re just minutes from town, giving you the best of both worlds. This isn’t just a house. It’s a lifestyle. And once you see it… you won’t want to leave.
