Welcome to 5961 Limestone Road – a charmingly preserved and tastefully updated farmhouse dating back to the 1800s, nestled on a generous one-acre lot. This rare gem effortlessly blends timeless historic charm with modern-day comfort and is truly move-in ready. As you step inside, you're greeted by a warm and welcoming foyer with hardwood floors that flow seamlessly throughout the home. To your left, a formal living room offers a cozy and elegant retreat, while to your right, a spacious and inviting dining room leads into a fully renovated kitchen adorned with sleek cabinetry, contemporary fixtures, and stylish finishes. At the rear of the home, a generously sized main-level bedroom features convenient access to a full bathroom, a bright laundry area, and a walkout to the private concrete patio—ideal for relaxing evenings or weekend entertaining. Upstairs, three comfortable bedrooms and two tastefully updated full bathrooms provide ample space for family and guests alike. Additional highlights include an oversized two-car attached garage, an expansive driveway with plenty of parking, and a host of recent improvements: brand-new windows throughout, modernized bathrooms, a new roof and owned solar panels for enhanced energy efficiency. This home is also connected to public water and sewer, offering added convenience and peace of mind. Photos will be published Wed, May 28th. Don’t miss this opportunity, showings begin Friday, May 30th! We will be hosting an open house on Saturday, May 31st from 12-2pm.
