Farms as beautiful as this are hard to find. Imagine 25 rolling acres with 15+ acres of hayfields, a pair of babbling creeks, and towering Oaks and Elms. There are two homes on the farm the main home (2005) is barn-style rustic with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and more than 4800sf of living space including a large studio space. The guest cottage (2006) is adorable 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, screen and wraparound porches, plus 18ft ceilings in the great room.
Homes crafted with vintage materials always feel more connected to the land. The reclaimed heart pine floors found throughout the living quarters gleam with the aged patina you love. Hand hewn timbers from an old barn have been incorporated into the design youll find them in the stairwell and used as posts on several porches. The home is built to last, with 2x10 framing and a metal roof, plus low maintenance hardy board and batten siding.

The main floor is an impressive 3600sf, with about half finished as living quarters and the other half used as studio space.
