This stately and distinctive federal-style farmhouse, built in 1812, is perched atop a hill overlooking Montour Ridge. It offers remarkable privacy on 3.5 acres, complete with a new heated in-ground pool, greenhouse, barn, and a fenced area for animals. The home retains many original details, including exposed brick, four fireplaces, wooden beams, wide-plank floors, and moldings. Restoration is complete, featuring a new designer kitchen with an oversized center island, updated primary and guest bathrooms, and additional historically sensitive cosmetic upgrades throughout the house. Modern smart switches, lighting, and a Nest thermostat have also been installed. The summer kitchen has been transformed into a guest bedroom, easily accommodating visiting family and friends with ease. The large primary suite includes an adjacent office space flooded with natural light, providing backyard views and its own mini-split for heating and cooling. Contemporary conveniences, such as high-speed internet and a private office, make working from home seamless. The open kitchen, with its spacious center island, formal dining area, and expansive back patio, creates the perfect setting for family life and entertaining guests. The home's location is ideal--less than 10 minutes from historic Lewisburg, under 15 minutes to Danville, and with quick access to Route 80, ensuring that regional attractions are always within reach. The three-car garage and convenient paved driveway offer ample storage, including a large second floor that could be converted into extra living or workspace; the garage is EV charger ready. Outside, the new 16 x 32 in-ground swimming pool (Hampton Style) is a secluded retreat, surrounded by thoughtfully landscaped grounds featuring mature, low-maintenance flowering shrubs and trees that provide year-round color and complement the home's setting. The barn is equipped with a solar-powered water collection tank, and two acres of fenced pasture are ready for livestock. A large 16 x 16 heated greenhouse and a 25 x 45 fenced vegetable garden await your green thumb. System updates throughout the house include exterior repainting, smart features, garage EV charger ready, communication systems, mini-splits, and central air conditioning for year-round comfort. If you are seeking a spacious, beautifully restored historic home that seamlessly blends period charm with modern living, offering spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and is ideal for entertaining or working from home, this property is a perfect choice.
