Your equestrian, farm, or permaculture dreams are now a reality! Conveniently located to Boone and all High Country amenities yet not another home in site sits this stately farmhouse originally built in 1907 but totally restored in the past 15 years. Stocked trout waters are excellent for fishing and/or watering livestock while taking in the peaceful sounds off of the wrap around covered porches. Inside find a home reminiscent of years gone by yet tastefully refurbished from the foundation to the roof. The appeal of one-level living is found on the main with three additional bedrooms, living area, and full bath upstairs. Beautiful barn and silo compliment the farm well, along with level areas, sloping pasture, rock outcroppings, and wooded areas. All of this located in the coveted and bucolic Bethel valley surrounded by other farms and great neighbors. Don't miss this rare historical gem, come see today! Adjacent partially finished area not counted in square footage but provides options for a mother-in-law- suite or endless possibilities.
