Set on just over 3 acres along one of the area's most iconic country roads, this beautifully maintained farm offers a rare combination of timeless farmhouse charm and modern convenience.

Beyond the house, the property unfolds as a country retreat, framed by pastoral views that provide an enduring backdrop in every season. Exceptionally well-maintained outbuildings further enhance the property, offering versatile space for a private studio, workshop, collector's retreat, equestrian or agricultural pursuits, or simply the opportunity to accommodate the passions and pleasures of country life.
