Quintessential country farmhouse on just under two acres offered for the first time. Built as the builder's own home, this 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom farmhouse in Hancock County features beautiful marble countertops, a Wolf gas range, detailed millwork, and gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The chef's Kitchen centers on a wall of black-framed casement windows above the sink that frames the wooded view and fills the room with natural light. A full formal dining room offers space for holiday gatherings. The main level includes a bedroom and full bathroom, ideal for guests. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and three bathrooms include a spacious primary en-suite. Outdoor living is the heart of this Sparta farmhouse. A rocking-chair front porch overlooks a pond, and a screened porch off the living room opens to the yard through a screen door that actually slaps. There's plenty of opportunity and storage in the unfinished basement. The grounds are ready for a gardener, with a small fenced area for a fire pit, a she shed for storage, and a chicken coop. Woods and open pasture surround the home for privacy and a true country setting. The location is far enough out to hear your thoughts and close enough for everyday conveniences: John Hancock Academy is 7.3 miles away, Gatewood Schools 25 miles, John Milledge Academy 29 miles, and the new Publix 22 miles. A rare chance to own a builder-crafted farmhouse with pond views, pasture, and a little acreage!
