    What's special

    Traditional layoutEquipment shedLaundry conveniently located upstairs
    A rare opportunity to own expansive acreage with endless possibilities! Discover a truly unique rural property set on 113 picturesque acres in Alexandria, offering a beautiful mix of rolling hills, wooded areas, tillable fields, and an electric‑fenced pasture ideal for livestock or horses. Shavers Creek winds through the land, adding natural beauty and a peaceful place to explore for both recreation and agricultural use. The property includes a classic 2‑story farmhouse and a large 60x40 bank barn with water, electricity, a newer roof and floor beams, plus an equipment shed. Originally built around 1890 and thoughtfully expanded over the years—including a 2006 addition—the farmhouse now offers 4 second‑floor bedrooms and 3 full baths, with the laundry conveniently located upstairs. The main level features a traditional layout with a cozy living room anchored by a stone wood‑burning fireplace, a charming eat‑in kitchen, and a formal dining room with a brick accent wall and mantle. Beautiful hardwood floors run from the foyer into the dining area. Enjoy the screened‑in front porch or the newly built composite deck overlooking the property. Additional highlights include an oversized 2‑car attached garage with workbench space, a whole‑house fan, a chlorinated water treatment system, and an unfinished basement ideal for storage or hobbies. This sprawling property is perfect for those who love the outdoors and want space to farm and enjoy the countryside. Schedule your tour today! A one‑acre portion of the land is leased long‑term to a neighbor, and the fields are currently leased to a neighboring farm. See documents for more details.
