You’ve pictured it in your mind, a country home surrounded by rolling countryside, a historic barn, a spring-fed creek, fenced pastures, privacy, and nearly 29 acres to call your own.

Measuring 22 x 15 ft, the spacious living room is currently arranged as a conversation area with informal dining, but its versatile layout can easily adapt to fit your needs.
