Welcome Home to a piece of Knox County history. Tucked away on 5.98 gently rolling acres across two parcels, this charming Folk Victorian farmhouse dates to the late 1800's and offers a rare opportunity to own a property rich in character. Whether you're dreaming of a small homestead, a family compound, future building opportunities, or simply a peaceful country retreat, this special property invites you to imagine. The home itself is full of the kind of charm that can only come with age. A welcoming front porch, complete with graceful curved corners, sets the tone for slow mornings with coffee. Inside, you'll find a bright and cheerful kitchen and dining area, a cozy living room, an additional front sitting room, and a main-level primary bedroom with walk-in closet. The original fireplace surround remains as a reminder of the home's history, now featuring an electric insert. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a full bath are tucked beneath the roofline, creating cozy spaces enhanced by efficient mini-split systems. While the home has been lovingly lived in and remains comfortable and functional, it also presents an opportunity for the next owner to continue its story and make it their own. Step outside and discover the pool and entertaining area surrounded by privacy fencing and featuring a deck, a tiki-inspired lounging space, and a covered pergola perfect for gathering or enjoying the incredible sunsets that stretch across the back of the property. Horse lovers and outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the property's history as a trail-riding retreat. The acreage is fully fenced with electric fencing along the front and barbed wire fencing along the back. Although the former riding ring has been removed, there remains ample space to recreate equestrian amenities if desired. Additional improvements include a spacious 25x26 detached garage, storage shed, pool storage building, septic service to the home, and a second septic system where a former mobile home was once located. New roofs were installed on both the home and detached garage in 2024. Mature dogwoods and apple trees add beauty throughout the seasons, while a dry creek bed meanders along the rear of the land. Properties like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find--a place where historic charm, usable acreage, beautiful sunsets, and future possibilities come together. Whether you choose to enjoy the existing farmhouse, use it as an investment property, build additional homes, or create a multigenerational family retreat, the opportunities here are as wide open as the countryside itself. Welcome Home!
