About 20730 Bucks Branch Rd

They don't build homes like this anymore. With a few cosmetic updates this could surely be a show piece. Sitting on almost an acre, surrounded by farmland, it's country living at it's best. During the current owner's 48+ years in this stately farmhouse, they completely gutted the interior, removing the horse hair plaster, updating the electrical, plumbing and added hot water baseboard heat. As with many farmhouses from that era, there is a back stair case leading from the kitchen to the large primary bedroom for those late night munchies. In 2017, a full bath was added to the first floor and a new roof in 2020. The property features a detached 2100 sq. ft heated garage with 4-12ft doors complete with an in the floor car lift with a huge overhead engine hoist perfect for that do-it-yourselfer. Built when carpenters were true craftsmen, this house boats real rough cut lumber. IF AND WHEN things go sideways, you can count on your kohler commercial grade diesel fired backup whole house generator as well as a secondary wood/coal fired furnace to keep you safe and comfortable. There's even an RV hook-up for those "Cousin Eddie" moments. Don't miss out on this unique opportunity, schedule your showing today.
