Property Description
Step back in time without sacrificing modern comfort. This beautifully renovated 1800s farmhouse blends timeless character with tasteful updates, creating a warm and inviting country retreat. Tucked away down a long driveway on a quiet country road, you’ll enjoy privacy and tranquility while being just minutes from the Town of Yarmouth and all amenities. The thoughtfully designed home offers plenty of space for family and entertaining. The main level features a spacious eat-in kitchen with a Hearthstone wood burning cookstove and oven—perfect for baking homemade bread and gathering with family. A large living room and formal dining room provide comfortable spaces to relax and entertain, while a full bath, laundry and a convenient main-level bedroom complete the first floor. Upstairs, you’ll find a generous primary suite with its own ensuite bath, a second large bedroom with a two-piece ensuite, an additional bedroom, and a bright sitting area that would make an ideal home office, reading nook, or exercise space. Outside, the possibilities are endless. Set on just over 30 acres, much of the land has been cleared and is ideal for hay, pasture, or expanding your hobby farm dreams. An impressive wired barn with water service and an integrated workshop is ready for livestock, equipment, or creative projects. A detached two-car garage, greenhouse, shed, raised vegetable gardens, apple trees, blueberry bushes, and other mature plantings make it easy to embrace a self-sufficient lifestyle. Explore the wooded trails, relax by the pond, or simply enjoy the peace and privacy that surrounds you. Whether you’ve been dreaming of a hobby farm, a country estate, or a place where charm, character, and nature come together, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity just minutes from Yarmouth.
