Constructed in 1956, the farmhouse spans 2,184 square feet and features a well-proportioned layout that is ripe for modernization. The interior includes an entrance hall, kitchen with adjoining utility room, dining room, sitting room, garden room, five bedrooms, and both a family bathroom and shower room.
