Property Description
Welcome to a one-of-a-kind, lovingly maintained 1880 stone farmhouse perched above scenic peach orchards and rolling farmland, offering breathtaking valley views and unforgettable sunrises and sunsets. This rare gem blends rich 19th-century charm with thoughtfully curated modern updates, all set on a private and picturesque 1.8-acre lot backed by a wooded area.
Step inside to discover the character that only a historic home can offer—deep stone window sills, original wide plank flooring, and interior stone walls that exude warmth and craftsmanship. The open-concept kitchen and living area, a rarity in homes of this vintage, creates an inviting, livable space perfect for gathering. A standalone wood-burning fireplace adds cozy comfort and ambiance on winter nights.
Spacious, with 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, including a brand-new full bathroom (August 2025), there's plenty of room for family, guests, or creative workspaces.
Outdoors, the magic continues with lush landscaping: towering lilac bushes, Rose of Sharon, irises, daffodils, hostas, evergreens, arborvitae, and raised garden beds perfect for your green thumb. A 20x40 in-ground saltwater pool with brand new liner (2025), new pump (2025) and salt cell (2023), and commercial-grade winter cover (2020) offers the ultimate seasonal escape.
This property's five versatile outbuildings unlock endless potential:
-Large bank barn with electricity, plumbing, half bath, and wood-burning stove
-2,500 sq ft concrete workshop with heat, 220V electric, high-speed internet (2024), and a wood stove—perfect for a serious hobbyist or creative studio
-Additional outbuildings with charm and utility for storage, events, or livestock
-RV/Airstream pad with electric hookup
Privacy landscaping (2020) and selective tree removal (2020) enhance the serene setting. With a history of hosting weddings, music videos, photoshoots, and events, this property isn't just a home—it's a destination.
Recent updates throughout the house include:
Brand New Hot Water Heater (Jan 2026), Newly refinished living room floor (July 2025), Roof improvements: Shingle roof redone (2023); slate roof updated (2024), New appliances: Dishwasher (2025), stove (2023), refrigerator (2019), Updated electrical (2019/2020) and plumbing (2020/2021)
Don't miss this opportunity to own a truly rare blend of historic character, modern convenience, and boundless versatility in a setting as peaceful as it is inspiring.
