Welcome to Sunnyside Farm. Prepare to fall in love with this picture-perfect 8-acre hobby farm, where timeless historic charm seamlessly blends with rural tranquility and exceptional workspace utility. As you travel down the tree-lined approach, you are welcomed by a gorgeous, all-brick century home that stands as a testament to classic craftsmanship. The grand wrap-around porch is the perfect spot for your morning coffee or spectacular evening sunsets over your own private acreage and large pond. Step inside to a home that exudes warmth and character. Beautifully preserved pine floors flow underfoot, guiding you through deep-set windows and spacious principal rooms. The heart of the home is the expansive country kitchen, a chef's and host's delight featuring a magnificent, authentic tin ceiling that adds striking vintage character to your everyday meals. The expansive 8 acres offer a parklike setting filled with mature trees and open green spaces along with the pond that hosts abundant wildlife all summer and for the energetic, a fabulous skating rink in winter. Standing tall on the acreage is a huge, structurally sound heritage barn, affording endless possibilities. The attached garage and shop is an absolute dream for hobbyists, mechanics, machinists and fabricators alike. This professional-grade workspace is fully insulated, heated, and equipped with a robust 200-amp electrical service. Best of all, it is a truly turnkey setup for your next project or home business: the high-end milling machine and precision metal lathe are included with the property. Whether you dream of restoring classic cars, manufacturing, running a trade from home or simply enjoy equestrian or livestock pursuits, this rare countryside oasis offers an unparalleled lifestyle. Having dutifully provided a lifetime of memories for the current family for over 56 years, the home stands tall and proud, ready to do the same for it's next custodians.
