About the Listing 98057 - 980005,216743
This is the country retreat you have been waiting for! Once operated as a horse farm, this exceptional 12.43 acre property offers everything you need to fully enjoy country living. A long driveway leads to the beautiful two-story farmhouse that has been thoughtfully updated over the years, while maintaining the woodwork and charm. Walk into the spacious mudroom and additional hallway area which provides abundant functional storage. The main-level bathroom has been fully updated and features a walk-in shower. The kitchen with all appliances contains wood built-ins and a walk-in pantry. The separate dining room, filled with natural light from numerous windows, opens onto the deck - for those peaceful country views. The living room with adjoining sitting area leads upstairs to four bedrooms and another newly updated bathroom (2024). New walls, windows (except 3), and flooring throughout. Additional stairs head up to a fully floored attic, ideal for storage or ready to be finished for extra living space. The walk-out basement features a wood burning furnace that can be used in conjunction with the propane furnace (new 2025). Outside, you'll find a charming front porch with a swing, a greenhouse with planters, and a chicken coop with a fenced-in area. Plenty of space for all of your gardening needs, with established asparagus, herbs, and apple trees. The impressive 24x56 detached four-car garage with a cement floor provides abundant workspace and storage. The barn includes four stalls with sliding doors and additional storage space. At the front of the barn, there's a dedicated office/workshop complete with a desk and bathroom area, as well as a stainless steel work sink, work tables, a small refrigerator and water heater - perfect for an at-home business or hobby space. There are also multiple fenced-in pastures, two lean-tos (one with four separate stall areas), and water run to all areas of the property. Whether you're looking to restore it as a horse property, launch your at-home business, or simply enjoy the peace and quiet of country living, the possibilities here are truly endless.
