    What's special

    Utility barnIconic farmhouseTraditional mule barnNatural water sourceUsable acreageAdditional run-in shedsRemarkably preserved craftsmanship
    A rare legacy offering in Burlington (4 miles to RT 18) where history, land, and opportunity align in a way that's increasingly hard to replicate. Set across 20 breathtaking acres, this extraordinary estate is more than a property, it's a living piece of Boone County history. The iconic farmhouse, recognized in film productions and a national ice cream commercial, carries a presence that is both timeless and unforgettable. Offering 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, the home welcomes you with a grand entry and a statement staircase that immediately sets the tone. Inside, character unfolds at every turn with 8 fireplaces, a warm and inviting country kitchen with its own hearth, and remarkably preserved craftsmanship including 16-inch thick walls and a solid, enduring foundation. A newer roof (2023) adds confidence while honoring the integrity of the home's past. Beyond the residence, the land tells its own story. A collection of barns and outbuildings including a pegged Amish-built barn with 7 stalls and expansive loft, a historic tobacco barn with stripping room and hay storage, a traditional mule barn, utility barn, and additional run-in sheds create a setting ideal for equestrian pursuits, hobby farming, or a working agricultural operation. Rolling pastures and a scenic sheep field overlook the home, offering a setting that feels both private and cinematic--perfect for hosting events, gatherings, or simply enjoying the quiet beauty of the land. The E Bend Alpaca Shop (negotiable), complete with inventory, branding, name, and established database, introduces a turnkey business opportunity for those looking to blend lifestyle with income. With a natural water source, usable acreage, and an unmatched setting, this is not simply a home, it's a generational property. A place to preserve, to build upon, and to create something truly meaningful for years to come.
