Listing Details:

Don?t miss this rare find ? an 1885 Georgian Style stone farmhouse in Oxford County with its own mature tree lined lane opening to 96 acres of workable farmland. Can you imagine the work required to create this truly impressive home? Large cut granite fieldstones were precision laid, enhanced at regular intervals by smaller closers to create a distinctive patterned effect. Quoins and lintels in contrasting colours distinguish this home as a cut above. A centre hall plan with formal front staircase, front door entrance framed by a window transom above and vertical side windows, 11 foot ceilings, two foot thick walls, deep window sills, extensive woodwork and baseboards, and solid maple plank flooring throughout are all original and existing features of this fine offering. The large eat-in country kitchen has been tastefully remodeled with solid cherry cabinetry in keeping with the original flavour of the home. A south facing sun room with a cozy wood stove was added over the years with access to a deck offering a spectacular view of the countryside. Two drivesheds and a concrete silo renovated into a bird?s eye view observatory complete the outside structures. A four-tenths mile track formerly used for conditioning trotters still exists today.

Conveniently located in the heart of prime Oxford County agricultural land, this property offers a unique opportunity to enjoy the splendour of life in century stone farmhouse, within easy commuting distance of the London and Woodstock areas. Rent the land to local farmers, set up a hobby farm or build an equestrian facility ? whatever your intended use, you won?t be disappointed with this property!
