    What's special

    Turnkey and thoroughly renovated farmhouse on 1.3-acre in-town lot in Yarmouth Village. Circa 1900 and fully updated in late 2022, this home offers 2,429 sq ft of living space with 4-5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths. Walk or bike to Main Street, Royal River Park, Westside Trail, Yarmouth schools and more! The sun-filled first floor features an open layout with a custom kitchen, walk-in pantry with added cabinetry and counter space, Thermador stainless appliances, and tiled backsplashes. The center island kitchen flows seamlessly to a spacious dining and living area with a stone-mantel gas fireplace and a versatile first-floor room with bath that functions beautifully as a fifth bedroom, office, or den. A powder room and separate laundry add everyday convenience. Upstairs, enjoy four bedrooms and two full baths including a primary suite with a walk-in closet and bath with double vanity, walk-in tiled shower, and soaking tub. The heated & insulated barn provides hot/cold water, heat pump, full electrical, spray-foam insulation, and T&G pine paneling offering flexible options for parking, hobbies, or future finished space. Outside, the expansive 1.3-acre grounds include a tucked-away fire pit, natural ledge, and mature plantings that include arborvitae, lilac, forsythia and a variety of trees. As well as a private deck off the rear of the home with built-in bench and outdoor hot tub. Classic charm, modern systems including heating & cooling, and a large in-town lot offers move-in ready condition to enjoy from day one.
