Steeped in history and surrounded by breathtaking High Country scenery, this remarkable 25± acre farm just outside historic Valle Crucis presents a rare opportunity to own a legacy property with unlimited potential. Operated as a working farm for more than 100 years, the property offers rolling pastures, springs, creeks, long-range mountain views, and an extraordinary combination of beauty, functionality, and future opportunity. At the heart of the property is a beautifully restored farmhouse believed to date back to the mid-to-late 1800s, though tax records indicate a construction date of 1904. Thoughtfully renovated with a deep respect for its historic character, the home seamlessly blends timeless craftsmanship with modern comforts. Recent improvements include a metal roof, all new windows, dual-fuel heat pump with central air conditioning, updated systems, and extensive restoration throughout. The result is a home that honors its heritage while providing the convenience, comfort and efficiency expected today. The inviting open floor plan is anchored by a stunning kitchen designed for gathering and everyday living. Features include a large eat-in island, farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, propane double-oven range, walk-in pantry, and abundant workspace. The main level offers two bedrooms and one full bath, while upstairs provides two additional sleeping areas with approximately 365 square feet of additional finished space not included in the heated square footage due to ceiling height restrictions. A partial unfinished basement provides valuable storage space. Outside, the home is surrounded by a beautifully fenced yard with attractive metal fencing, creating a picturesque setting for pets, gardening, or simply enjoying the mountain views. A detached post-and-beam four-bay carport adds both character and functionality. The land is truly the star of the show. With approximately 25 acres of rolling pasture, abundant water features, multiple outbuildings, and spectacular long-range views, the property is ideally suited for horses, livestock, farming, recreation, or creating the ultimate mountain estate. A substantial 50' x 30' metal building completed in 2022 offers exceptional versatility, featuring four bays with automatic doors, covered lean-tos, and 220-amp service, making it ideal for equipment storage, workshops, agricultural operations, or hobby pursuits. Adding even more value, the sale includes the tractor, implements, and RTV, allowing the next owner to immediately enjoy and maintain the property from day one. For those looking toward the future, the possibilities are abundant. The existing farmhouse could continue as a primary residence, guest house, or income-producing rental while additional homes are constructed. With no known restrictions on further development and a current three-bedroom septic permit already on file for an additional homesite, this property is uniquely positioned for a family compound, equestrian estate, investment opportunity, or multi-generational retreat. Properties offering this combination of history, usable acreage, mountain views, water features, extensive improvements, equipment inclusion, and future development potential are exceedingly rare. This is more than a home—it is an opportunity to preserve a piece of High Country history while creating a legacy for generations to come.
