At the heart of the property is a fully restored post-and-beam barn, now an impressive art studio with electricity, offering endless potential for creative, professional, or recreational use. The main residence features soaring 9-foot-plus ceilings, original wide-plank hardwood floors, a dramatic spiral staircase, and three fireplaces. The updated kitchen blends period character with modern convenience, showcasing a 6-burner Wolf cooktop, high-end refrigerator and dishwasher, and a dedicated marble pastry counter designed for bakers and entertainers alike. A second barn serves as a versatile workshop, while a rustic pavilion offers a peaceful spot for relaxation or entertaining, and a former pool house provides additional flexibility for storage or future adaptation. Stone patios, a wrap-around porch, and expansive grounds complete this rare property that balances timeless charm with endless possibilities.
