This is not just a house. This is a home—a sanctuary where timeless charm meets modern comfort. Step into a world where the past and present blend seamlessly, and every day feels like a retreat plucked from the pages of a magazine. A Home with a Story: Lose yourself in the enchantment of this 1930s renovated farmhouse.

Spaces for Dreams and Creativity: Imagine spending your afternoons in the expansive 45x60 workshop, a haven for creativity and craftsmanship. With storage space beyond your wildest dreams, it's perfect for building, crafting, and tinkering to your heart's content. Or perhaps you'll find solace in the 1800s schoolhouse, thoughtfully repurposed as a guesthouse or home office. Here, you can take video calls and handle business while feeling worlds away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It's a space that inspires productivity and peace in equal measure. A Haven for Farm Life Enthusiasts: If you've ever dreamt of having farm animals, this property is your haven. With ample space and facilities, your dreams of a small farm can come to life. And for those with a love for adventure, there's plenty of parking for all your toys—boats, RVs, ATVs, and more. The Main Home: Originally renovated by a renowned fine custom home builder, the main house is bursting with charm and character. From the elegant Blue Flagstone floors to the majestic stacked Colorado River stone fireplace, every detail exudes quality and craftsmanship. Huge post and beams decorate the cased openings and stairway, while custom elements are tucked around every corner, adding to the home's unique personality. Whether the main house perfectly suits your needs or you envision building something larger on the property, the multi-structure layout offers endless possibilities. It could even be transformed into the perfect business space, blending work and home life seamlessly.
