About 183 Birnamwood Dr

Back on the market. Buyer changed plans—don't miss your chance to make this charming farmhouse yours! Built in the early 1900s, this authentic farmhouse invites you into a life where every beam tells a story. Inside, you'll find old brick floors, timeworn hardwoods, and jewel-toned stained glass that dances with natural light. The heart of the home is a spacious, light-filled kitchen featuring soapstone counters, SubZero fridge, a 48'' AGA induction range with three ovens, generous cabinetry, a large island, and an eat-in area that adds warmth and flexibility. The living room impresses with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, a wood stove, and a gallery-style staircase. A vintage dining room sets the tone for gatherings. The first-floor owner's suite offers a light-filled curved sitting room, antique fireplace, clawfoot tub, and hand-carved marble-top vanity. Upstairs: two bedrooms, a loft, and storage. A 1,524 sqft guest cottage adds income or creative space. The entire property is a Certified Bird Friendly Habitat, with fruit trees, pond, gardens, chicken coop, and a front porch made for taking it all in.
