Welcome to a one-of-a-kind nature lover’s retreat. This storybook 1912 farmhouse with fieldstone porch and landscaped terraces is nestled in a woodland oasis, set against forested hillside and looking out across horse pastures to the Cedar River. The 2-bedroom house preserves its original farmhouse character with fresh upgrades where you want them. Just 10 minutes southeast of Renton on a quiet country road, this unique property offers the perfect blend of seclusion, charm, and convenience. If you’re looking for peaceful surroundings, abundant outdoor space, and a home with character, this is the place for you.
A tree-lined drive and spacious covered stone porch welcome you. Step inside to the generous living room with cozy fireplace and built-in shelving, which connects through to the centrally-located kitchen. Throughout the house original wood paneling, vintage fixtures and built-in cabinetry have been preserved and freshly painted, while new quartz countertops and appliances brighten the kitchen. Original touches like the classic farmhouse sink, wood burning stove, and vintage lighting add timeless appeal. A generously sized mudroom and laundry room with access to a fenced backyard completes this area of the home.
Adjoining the kitchen and extending into the greenery of the garden is the window-lined dining room with original paneling and built-in storage cabinetry behind doors. From the sunny dining room step outside to the garden terrace where a built-in picnic table and fieldstone fireplace will draw family and friends together around barbecue dinners and marshmallow roasts.
The bedrooms and bathrooms are privately situated down a hallway, which also provides access to the upper level loft. The original bathroom has been refreshed with new plank flooring while retaining its original clawfoot tub and character. The bedrooms are well-sized with built-in cabinetry and each have an adjoining updated bathroom. Up a small stairway a large loft provides exceptional flexibility and abundant storage. Whether you need a home office, playroom, creative studio, guest space, or additional living area, this is a bright and adaptable space.
The true highlight of this home is the incredible setting. Step outside into your own private sanctuary, surrounded by towering trees and bird song, and savor the closeness of nature. Whether you love gardening, outdoor entertaining, or simply relaxing in a peaceful environment, this property offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a country setting while remaining close to city amenities.
