The true charm of country life is that you never quite lose the past. Set on over 90 acres of rolling fields and lush woodlands, this beautifully restored 1800s farmhouse invites you to embrace the art of slow living without sacrificing modern comforts. Lovingly restored in the 1990s (electrical, plumbing, septic), this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home combines historic soul with thoughtful upgrades: a crisp quartz-counter kitchen (2021), updated bathrooms (2021), and a cozy wood stove (2016) that anchors the heart of the home. Exposed logs and original wood floors whisper stories of generations past, while the bright sunroom frames idyllic views of pastureland that stretches to the horizon. The property is a working canvas for your rural dreams; a classic barn, several versatile outbuildings, a chicken coop, and about 20 acres of pasture support your homesteading ambitions, while the mixed forest adds privacy, trails, and wildlife. The large fenced garden is ready for your heirloom tomatoes or whatever seeds of self-sufficiency you want to sow. Modern life blends effortlessly here with fibre high-speed internet, a metal roof and furnace (2016), and some new windows (2018) and doors (2019 & 2024). A quintessential 2023 wraparound porch is perfect for morning coffees or sunset watching after a day outdoors. With a detached garage, plenty of parking, and a location just 5 minutes to a charming general store (yes, ice cream cones included!), you're 20 minutes to Carleton Place and Almonte, and less than an hour to downtown Ottawa.Tucked at the end of a quiet dead-end road, this is the best of both worlds: a peaceful, self-sufficient lifestyle close enough to the city for an easy commute.
