Entire Farm Description:

Welcome to this stunning 3,856 sq. ft. colonial-style home that combines charm, space, and modern convenience, nestled on over 25.1 acres of picturesque land. This expansive home boasts 3 huge bedrooms and 3.5 baths, along with an additional living quarter over the garage offering ample room for both relaxation, entertainment and even income potential. Rich wood walls and a blend of wood and tile flooring throughout, create a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The spacious kitchen features abundant cupboard space, double wall-mounted ovens, a gas stove, a generously sized island complete with a built-in wine cooler and microwave, and gorgeous granite countertops. A commercial-grade refrigerator/freezer and a deep sink add to the kitchen's functionality, while the high ceilings and pellet stove enhance its charm. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large pantry, laundry, and mudroom area with direct access to the outdoors, ensuring convenience and practicality. The main floor also includes 3 generously sized bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, and 3 full bathrooms.

The living and dining areas offer spaciousness and elegance, with a central wood-burning fireplace, French doors leading to the front porch, and recessed lighting. The first floor is completed by a side entryway and another spacious bedroom with ample storage space.

Descend the metal spiral staircase to the open basement, where you'll find a walk-out to the brick patio overlooking a scenic 3.5-acre pond. The basement is ideal for entertaining, featuring a fireplace at its center, a bar, and a built-in sound system. With large windows allowing natural light, this space is perfect for gatherings. The basement once housed a fully functional kitchen, and while the appliances remain, it has not been used recently. There is also a half bath and direct access to the garage from this lower level.

Recent updates include a new roof and gutters with a lifetime warranty, and a Lennox boiler furnace installed in 2019. The property operates on natural gas heating, with a private well with a water softener and also has the convenience of city sewer. The upstairs, with its private entrance, features a 1-bedroom apartment complete with a full bath, kitchen, and family room—perfect for guests or potential rental income.

The property is complete with a 3-bay garage and asphalt driveway, along with a classic bank barn featuring 12 horse stalls in the lower level and extensive storage and open space above, offering endless possibilities for equestrian enthusiasts. There's also a tool shed, an additional horse stall barn with extra storage, and 9.9 acres of fertile fields to use as pasture or just your own personal oasis.

The 3.5-acre pond graces the landscape, perfect for peaceful afternoons by the water, and the expansive yard provides plenty of room for a garden or outdoor activities. Whether you’re looking to start a mini farm, enjoy recreational activities, or simply relish in the privacy of a grand estate, this home offers unparalleled opportunities for convenient living in a serene setting.  At one time this property was a renowned show place and today offers the canvas for you to add your personal touches to return it to that state.
