Over the years, thoughtful additions have expanded the property to meet the needs of modern living, including substantial living space above the attached three-car garage. The result is a rare blend of historic charm and contemporary functionality. Inside, you'll find expansive living areas, generous bedrooms, multiple gathering spaces, and the flexibility to accommodate a variety of lifestyles. Whether hosting family and friends, enjoying quiet evenings at home, or simply appreciating the beauty of the surrounding countryside, this home offers both comfort and character at every turn. Beyond the residence, the acreage provides rolling views, mature trees, open green space, and a peaceful setting that feels worlds away from the demands of everyday life. Adding to the property's historical appeal is a structure located behind the main residence. Local residents have long identified the building as a former schoolhouse, while historical registry records indicate that a smokehouse once stood to the rear of the property. Regardless of its original purpose, the structure serves as a fascinating reminder of the property's rich past and the generations who once lived and worked here. The John Baughman House remained in the Baughman family for approximately 130 years, preserving a legacy few properties can claim. Built before the Civil War and carefully maintained through generations of ownership, the home stands today as a remarkable example of how history and modern living can coexist. Historic homes come and go. Historic estates of this caliber rarely become available.
