Property Description
"With the right words you can change the world. Templeton, I need words and lots of them!" Just as miraculous as Charlotte's Web this is country living at it's absolute finest. Sprawled out on just under 2 acres of a private oasis this early 1900's farm house is TERRIFIC! Beyond the outside amenities perfect for your favorite farm yard friends stands the offspring of 'Rustic' and 'Shabby Chic'. Upon approach the 36 foot long front porch shakes hands with your attention followed by a mighty fine "how do you do?" Even Wilbur would agree, there is nothing more welcoming than a huge front porch with rocking chairs and a sweet tea. After falling in love with the scenic views over the fields of gold step into this open concept country home. The chef's kitchen is far from HUMBLE with a Thermadore oven/range and a commercial grade stainless refrigerator and freezer. The open concept begs you to entertain while your guests spectate from the island stools. Find peace and quiet in the massive family room lined with rustic barnwood and vintage riggings. A huge first floor bath is complete with a walk in shower and locker system perfect to hide the toiletries while the deep farmhouse bath sink completes the vibe. A thoughtful first floor bedroom is currently being used as a home office. Ascend the open staircase to your private country loft to find the RADIANT primary bedroom and bathroom complete with a tub and shower. The bright and airy primary bedroom has an extra long walk-in closet. Below deck the vintage barnwood decor continues in the partially finished basment with two more bedroom options (no egress). Storage galore in the basement and a massive laundry room. The attached garage can be accessed from the basement also and has been finished with a dedicated furnace, insulation, epoxy floors, plumbing, and sliding doors. Through the family room sliding glass doors step into a world of enchantment to the large patio area with fire pit and raised planting beds to live just as self-sufficiently as you wish. The entire landscape has been tamed and manicured to remain private yet functional in regards to maintenance. All living things find harmony in this perfectly contained backyard perfect for our four-legged friends, feathered friends, and even our underwater buddies in the Coi pond. Live carefree and frolic with the goats for many years to come with a new Septic, new well pressure tank, some new windows, newer roof and freshly manicured landscape with plenty of room for your farm favorites and rural activities. Move right into this magnificent farmstead and lifestyle as the chickens, ducks, and goats may convey with the property if desired! Audio and visual recording devices outside and inside (baby monitors) of the home.
