Home Description

Built in the early 1900s, this authentic farmhouse invites you into a life where every beam tells a story. Inside, you'll find old brick floors, timeworn hardwoods, and jewel-toned stained glass that dances with natural light. The heart of the home is a spacious, light-filled kitchen featuring soapstone counters, SubZero fridge, a 48'' AGA induction range with three ovens, generous cabinetry, a large island, and an eat-in area that adds warmth and flexibility. The living room impresses with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, a wood stove, and a gallery-style staircase. A vintage dining room sets the tone for gatherings. The first-floor owner's suite offers a light-filled curved sitting room, antique fireplace, clawfoot tub, and hand-carved marble-top vanity. Upstairs: two bedrooms, a loft, and storage. A 1,524 sqft guest cottage adds income or creative space. The entire property is a Certified Bird Friendly Habitat, with fruit trees, pond, gardens, chicken coop, and a front porch made for taking it all in.
