Property Description

Step into timeless charm and rich history in this extraordinary Farmhouse–style home, originally built in the 1700s as a log cabin tavern. By 1850, it had become a dry goods store, and over the centuries it has been thoughtfully restored and updated while preserving its remarkable character. From the moment you arrive, stunning molding, historic touches, and modern luxury plank floors flow throughout the main and upper levels. The inviting foyer features a Victorian-style woodstove and trim that sets the tone for the home’s historic appeal. Just off the entry, a large family room offers its own fireplace with crown and chair rail molding, while the expansive living room is perfect for both formal entertaining and everyday living. The flooring has been completely rebuilt to ensure structural integrity. A separate formal dining room with elegant touches opens seamlessly into a breathtaking, light-filled sunroom with skylights and panoramic views of the surrounding homestead landscape. French doors lead to a covered rear porch with a ceiling fan, making it an ideal spot for outdoor dining, morning coffee, or evening gatherings. The bright kitchen features recessed lighting, a large farmhouse sink, stylish painted cabinetry, a new backsplash, a cozy breakfast nook, a garden box window, and both a pantry closet and walk-in pantry. A convenient half bath completes the main level. Upstairs, the open and versatile landing area is perfect for a library or sitting area. The spacious primary suite offers a private full bath with a unique vaulted ceiling, a new double vanity, and updated LVT flooring. Three additional generously sized bedrooms complete the level, including one with its own fireplace, along with a full hall bath with a custom built-in vanity and a second-floor laundry room for everyday convenience. The land is just as special as the home itself and feels like a private retreat. Custom patios create distinct spaces for entertaining, dining, and relaxing. Large koi ponds with a waterfall feature provide a peaceful focal point, while mature trees, lush gardens, and professional landscaping surround you in natural beauty. Raised garden beds for herbs and vegetables allow you to tend your gardens while enjoying sweeping views of the property. The fully fenced yard, newly fenced pastures, and a new horse run-in shed with water access provide an immediate home for precious, or future, animals. The property features seven total structures: the main house, a cottage, charming potting shed, chicken coop, feed shed/rabbit shed, run-in horse shed, and a 350 SF equipment storage shed. The on-site cottage is separately metered with the power company and has water potential, offering excellent flexibility for a home business or guest space. The cottage also has a pigeon house built onto it which could be used for other animals. Behind the outbuildings, a mature orchard produces apples, nectarines, plums, peaches, pears, and cherries. Recent infrastructure upgrades include new well lines, a new 500-gallon poly tank, and a new hot water heater, adding peace of mind and modern reliability. With walls an impressive 16 inches thick, the home stays naturally cool in the summer and warm in the winter, a testament to its enduring craftsmanship. This property comes with a second 0.67-acre parcel. This exceptional home offers space, history, character, and tranquility, perfect for those seeking classic farmhouse charm with incredible indoor and outdoor living.
