Property Description

Here’s an incredible opportunity to own a beautifully updated piece of history. According to records, this charming farmhouse dates back to the Civil War era — and its character still shines through in the original exterior brick, decorative front fence, and impressive outbuilding with a slate roof and hand-hewn timbers. Inside, you’ll find touches of historic charm blended seamlessly with modern updates. The original stair treads, deep window sills, and double staircase showcase the craftsmanship of the past, while the updates throughout make daily living a breeze. Gorgeous hardwood floors flow through the spacious main level, offering plenty of room for family and friends to gather. The kitchen is a true highlight, featuring custom cabinetry with thoughtful details — pull-out drawers, sheet pan dividers, and a convenient spice rack system. A full bath and a large laundry room with built-in cabinetry complete the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms and a full bath that connects both to the hallway and the primary suite. The bathroom features a double vanity and a separate toilet room. The primary bedroom boasts an impressive walk-in closet, while all bedrooms include generous closet space and overhead lighting. The third bedroom/flex room also includes a massive cedar closet with a handy laundry chute to the main level, plus access to the nearly finished attic — an expansive space just waiting for final touches to become an additional bedroom, hobby area, or storage. Past updates include removal of horsehair plaster, new drywall, updated electric and plumbing, central air, and much more — blending historical charm with modern comfort. Relax on the covered front porch and enjoy views of the stream, mountains, and the original family barn next door. The backyard includes a large shed perfect for a mower, workshop, or storage. This home gives you the rare chance to own an incredible farmhouse without waiting for new updates. Come see for yourself how beautifully history and modern living come together here!
