Discover this hidden gem in Owen Co. on a beautiful 35-acre parcel, partially wooded for privacy. A meandering gated driveway leads you to the original 1880s farmhouse, a charming story-and-a-half home perched on the rolling hills of this picturesque property. This farmhouse has been preserved with valuable upgrades, retaining its original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, and an abundance of natural light through updated energy-efficient windows. The walls are adorned with bead board wainscoting, adding a touch of classic charm. Enjoy a seat on the porch, take in the native hydrangeas & majestic maple tree in the front landscape before entering the front door to the large living room featuring an original brick fireplace. The main floor master bedroom is spacious and includes an additional front door entrance. The formal dining room has built-in cabinetry and shelving, a long wall of windows, & an intricate textured wallpaper ceiling. In the center of the home in addition to the staircase leading up, a Fisher woodstove on a brick hearth is ideal for cozy evenings. The tastefully renovated eat-in kitchen features views of the backyard, vaulted ceiling, new beadboard cabinetry, SS appliances, & LVP flooring. Laundry room includes a utility sink & extensive cabinetry matching the bath. Utility/mud room is a versatile space w/ concrete floors, several closets, countertops, & dry sink. The upper floor has 3 rooms w/ dormered ceilings, the loft offering a large double closet for storage for the entire upstairs. The second bedroom not completely renovated, and a third larger room setup as a bedroom. Note due to the period of the home, not all bedrooms offer closets. Outdoor features include 30x40 pole barn built in 2020 with a lean-to along w/ a workshop building 24x30 built in 2012, perfect for avid woodworkers. Partial concrete silo has steps leading to an observation platform with meadow views.
