Rare 1790 Homestead & Hobby Farm Opportunity in a Peaceful Country Setting! Bring your vision, roll up your sleeves, and unlock the incredible potential of this authentic late-18th-century property! Set on a tranquil, private country lot with ideal conditions for small animals, gardens, and a true self-sufficient lifestyle, this is a prime sweat-equity opportunity to build instant value and create something truly special. The Land & Outbuildings Post-and-Beam Barn: A classic, traditional wood post-and-beam barn stands ready for your hobby farm dreams—perfect for housing small livestock, horses, workshop equipment, or hay storage. Acreage & Grounds: The lot is currently being cleared and offers a fantastic blank slate to refine, fence, and landscape to suit your exact agricultural or recreational vision upon ownership. Attached Greenhouse: Enjoy year-round growing potential with a greenhouse lean-to attached directly to the rear of the home—ideal for starting seedlings or cultivating winter greens. The 1790 Residence & Redesign Potential Historic Character: Originally built circa 1790 with a later addition, this home features timeless bones and historic provenance waiting to be restored. Floorplan Flexibility: Currently in need of a full renovation and interior redesign, the existing footprint offers an exciting canvas to reimagine the layout into a cohesive, modern country farmhouse that fits your lifestyle. Essential Systems in Working Order While the home and greenhouse await your cosmetic and structural updates, the core infrastructure is already in place and functioning—the private well, septic system, water heater, and furnace are all in maintained working order, giving you a solid foundation as you renovate. Whether you are an ambitious homesteader, a restoration enthusiast, or a buyer looking to build equity in a quiet rural pocket, properties with this much character, outbuilding utility, and potential rarely hit the market. Come walk the grounds and envision how you can make this historic homestead shine again!
