497 Old Hwy 85 Rental

Step Back in Time: A Farmhouse Retreat with Modern Comforts **** There's a certain kind of magic in a home that has stood the test of time. Built in 1880, this beautifully restored farmhouse carries with it the whispers of generations past-memories etched into the walls, the warmth of aged wood beneath your feet, and the kind of charm only history can bestow. Lovingly renovated in 2021, every corner of this home has been carefully updated while preserving its soul. Original hardwood floors shine once more, new ceramic tile bathrooms blend seamlessly with vintage character, and a thoughtfully reimagined kitchen with shaker-style cabinets looks out over twelve acres of open fields-a breathtaking sight when the red clover blooms in spring or the morning sunrise. As you step into the foyer, authentic wood walls, ceilings, and floors wrap you in a sense of timelessness, flanked by two spacious bedrooms steeped in history. The original poured-glass windows at the front of the home offer a rare glimpse into the past, allowing soft morning light to spill into the rooms just as it has for over a hundred and forty-five years. The large living room is perfect for quiet moments or lively gatherings, while the primary suite features a spacious walk-in closet and easy access to the laundry room, nestled in the side mudroom. Fireplaces stand as elegant reminders of the past, though they have been capped for safety. Beyond the walls of this home, the land itself invites you to explore-nearly two miles of walking and running trails wind through the property, offering daily adventures beneath open skies. This is more than just a place to live. It's a place to experience-where modern comfort meets historic charm-a home with a story, waiting for its next chapter, thoughtfully restored with extensive renovations to blend past and present seamlessly.
