Agent Description

English countryside charm meets Hamptons bungalow living on this stunning 5-acre estate overlooking the Scioto River. Originally built in 1858 and completely reimagined, the property blends historic character with modern efficiency and low utility costs.

The main residence offers 2,597 sq. ft. with soaring 10' ceilings, a light-filled kitchen and dining area with cathedral ceilings, and a warm, inviting living space accented by a fireplace and exposed barn beams. The spacious owner's suite features its own fireplace, dual vanities, a large walk-in shower, soaking tub, and an expansive walk-in closet.

Thoughtful details carry throughout, including transom windows, shiplap ceilings in the bathrooms, white oak flooring upstairs, a walnut staircase, and custom built-ins. A charming 352 sq. ft. guest house with a fireplace and cathedral beam ceiling was completely renovated in 2026 complete with a kitchen, full bathroom, dining area, and room for a bed.

The barn is fully equipped with six horse stalls, a concrete-floor workshop, and three gated paddocks with dual hydrant pumps. Outdoors, the property offers fruit trees and bushes, a vegetable garden, scenic recreational trails, a 100-yard target/archery range, and direct access to kayak or fish along the Scioto River--creating a lifestyle that's equal parts refined and rugged.
