Property Description
There is something wonderfully authentic about an old farmhouse, and this one offers the space, character and setting to create something truly special. Generously proportioned and filled with the kind of architectural character that simply cannot be replicated in a new home, this spacious country property offers a rare opportunity to restore, reimagine and make it your own. Set on 4.57+ acres, this property includes the farmhouse, and guesthouse, pool, newer separate 3-car garage, vintage barn, pasture, and Solvang's historical Wulff Windmill. The home retains the charm and personality of another era, while its substantial scale provides an exceptional canvas for a thoughtful renovation. Imagine bringing new life to this wonderfully authentic farmhouse. For those who appreciate character over cookie-cutter, this is an opportunity to live in a home with soul. Step outside to enjoy numerous entertaining areas with exceptional mountain views. Whether you're hosting a gathering in the barbecue area, unwinding on the decks, or taking a dip in the pool, the outdoor space is designed for relaxation and entertainment. The fenced yard, bucolic pasture, historical Solvang windmill, gardens, and outdoor lighting enhance the appeal, creating a feeling of going back in time. Bring your vision, your imagination and your love of old houses. The possibilities are extraordinary!
