Historic 1851 Farmhouse Retreat

This cottage is one of the oldest homes in the county that is still standing, since 1851. When we found this house for sale, we loved the wide open hall through the house, the family-style layout, and bones of the home. We only updated the kitchens and the bathrooms, applied fresh paint with original color palette, added HVAC, and supplemented the lighting.

**please note -This is a rural & old property, understand that insects and rodents may appear even though they are managed with extermination.**

This home features an original historic layout, spacious parking, lots of yard, and original barn on site. One master bedroom with private bathroom, two guest bedrooms, one guest bathroom, common grand hall, living room, dining room, appliance-equipped kitchen, laundry zone, covered front & back porches.

We provide plenty of yard games, board games, card games, magazines, wildlife books, classic books, and lounging areas for a charming un-plugged family stay!

For morning convenience, coffee & tea are provided.

The Farmhouse is located near a gravel country road, so traffic is in proximity.
