From the Zillow listing:

 

A farmhouse dream brought to life, this charming 1938 home offers the perfect blend of timeless character, thoughtful updates, and peaceful surroundings. The current owner has made the important investments to preserve this home for the long term, completing extensive structural and system improvements including reinforced 8×8 support beams, a full vapor barrier, updated wiring and plumbing, exterior drainage enhancements, a new water heater and pressure tank, and a whole-house dehumidifier. Classic farmhouse style is felt throughout, with butcher block countertops anchoring the kitchen and a cozy living room centered around a gas fireplace, complete with charming nooks and thoughtful details at every turn. Upstairs, the primary suite features a spacious bath with a clawfoot tub overlooking peaceful views. An additional room offers flexibility and could serve as a nursery, home office, craft space, or bonus room. Please note that the upstairs level includes approximately 371 square feet that is not counted in the total heated square footage due to ceiling height and MLS requirements. The official square footage of 704 square feet reflects the main level only. Downstairs, an additional flex space sits between the second guest room and a spacious bathroom, offering excellent options for guests, work-from-home needs, or extra living space. Outdoors, two covered porches set the stage for summer evenings, while a fenced yard is perfect for littles or the pups. A thoughtfully designed firepit area invites bonfires and s’mores under the stars. The property also includes a raised garden bed ready for spring planting, a storage shed with ample space, and additional stand-up storage within the crawlspace. Located just 15 minutes from Boone, this home truly captures the charm of farmhouse living with the convenience of nearby town amenities.
