This charming residence stands proudly amidst 12.4 acres of pastoral beauty, offering a rare combination of vintage elegance and modern comfort. Approaching the farmhouse, one is greeted by the huge covered front porch, providing a welcoming entry point into a home steeped in character. The expansive porch invites leisurely afternoons and warm gatherings, overlooking a large yard framed by fencing that surrounds the pasture land and affords breathtaking views of Little North Mountain in the distance.
