About this home
Tucked away on a shy acre, this thoughtfully updated farmhouse offers a peaceful setting with room to live, work, and grow. A long gravel drive leads to a welcoming property framed by mature greenery, classic architecture, and multiple flexible-use spaces. Inside, the main home blends charm with modern updates, featuring bright living areas, refinished flooring, and a formal dining space ideal for everyday living or entertaining. The main level includes one bedroom plus an additional room that may function as a second bedroom with shared closet access, along with a full bath. Upstairs offers two bedrooms, a loft, and a ¾ bath, creating separation and privacy. The property extends beyond the main home with a detached studio featuring a bathroom and flexible space that may be well-suited for hobbies, creative pursuits, a home office, fitness area, or other uses. An additional finished space behind the two-car garage provides even more versatility, while a separate one-car garage adds storage and functionality. Recent updates enhance comfort and reliability, including a new roof, an all-new electrical system, an updated panel, a high-efficiency furnace, and refreshed HVAC ductwork. Additional improvements include new gutters, a well pressure tank, and fresh interior paint. Refinished wood floors and LVP complete the interior. The fully fenced property also includes a finished storage shed, a two-car garage, and a separate single-car garage.
