Property Description

60 Acres of Rolling Countryside with a Restored Farmhouse. This remarkable property spans 60 acres of gently rolling land, offering a rare blend of open fields, mature hardwoods, natural tree lines, and a spring-fed pond—an ideal setting for those seeking space, privacy, and a true connection to the land. The acreage is well-suited for farming, livestock, gardens, recreation, or simply enjoying wide-open views and peaceful rural living. Whether your vision includes homesteading, hobby farming, or a private retreat, the land provides endless possibilities. Nestled within the property is a beautifully renewed classic country farmhouse that complements the landscape with timeless character and modern comfort. Inside, original hardwood floors have been carefully restored, and spacious living and dining areas are filled with natural light from large windows and high ceilings. The redesigned kitchen features custom cabinetry and quartz countertops, blending function with refined style. A main-floor office adds flexibility for work or daily living. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms and a versatile bonus area offer space for rest, creativity, or gathering, while a cozy lounge off the largest bedroom creates a peaceful place to unwind. Outside, a two-story barn—updated with a new roof, improved lighting, and reinforced concrete walls—stands ready for animals, equipment, storage, or workshop use. From the rolling acreage and water source to the thoughtfully restored farmhouse, this property offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial piece of land while enjoying the comforts of a move-in-ready home—where country living, productivity, and beauty come together in perfect balance.
