Up to 5k seller paid closing costs! Can a modern farmhouse also be authentic? In this case, the answer is yes. Built a century ago with the foresight of a resilient farmer, this fully updated home and workshop/living space sits atop on a knob with views of the Little Ivy River and picturesque farmland. Enjoy river views from the front porch, wildflowers, and fertile bottomland. The back deck overlooks a ready-made farmstead with a classic red barn and small livestock sheds. Updated by an engineer and a woodworker, the home blends modern convenience with character. Beadboard walls, heart pine floors, and a Jotul stove grace the living room. The modern kitchen adjoins a light-filled living area. The workshop next door invites the woodworker, quilter, potter, or other creatives to do their best work. Above it lies a beautifully finished guest space. This rare property combines rural charm with close proximity to town-a dream for anyone seeking peace, purpose, and beauty. No drive-bys.
