Tucked away off the beaten path, this beautifully restored 1870s farmhouse immediately captured my heart—and I’m beyond thrilled to call it home. As I wind down the private driveway beneath a canopy of mature trees, I can already picture chickens pecking around the yard and farm animals roaming freely; this hidden gem offers a slice of rural paradise all to myself. The front porch is pure magic—I can imagine slow mornings spent sipping coffee, gently rocking in a chair, and soaking in the peaceful stillness. Inside, the warmth of the recently refinished hardwood floors and original 1870s details welcomes you, highlighted by a recently exposed and repointed original stone accent wall in the living room that provides a rustic focal point and perfectly complements the home’s historic charm. An open layout flows seamlessly from the living area to the dining space, ideal for holidays, dinners, and casual gatherings alike. The kitchen—with crisp white cabinetry, modern appliances, generous counter space, and a cozy pellet stove in the corner—is the heart of the home, and before heading upstairs, you’ll find a full bathroom and convenient laundry room on the first floor. Upstairs, three generously sized, light-filled bedrooms include a master suite with an attached bonus room adaptable for a home office, workout space, or whatever you dream up next. The basement anchors my homesteading setup with a private, self-sustaining water source drawn from a natural underground spring—an incredible feature for independence and sustainability—while updated electrical fixtures ensure modern peace of mind. Outside, nearly an acre of land awaits the garden of my dreams, where I’ll tend rows of vegetables, prune plants at sunset, and embrace a slower, more grounded life. The location couldn’t be better—secluded yet accessible, with Routes 73 and 100 just minutes away for quick trips to nearby towns, and parks, hiking trails, golf courses, and shopping close at hand—offering the perfect balance of countryside tranquility and modern convenience. This farmhouse is more than just a home; it’s the lifestyle I’ve always dreamed of, and I can’t wait to make it mine.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
