Some properties are built. Others are created. Morning Star began with a dream. Nearly 30 years ago, a mother and daughter imagined a little tearoom in the country-a place to slow down, gather over homemade food and escape for a while. Their family brought that dream to life by dismantling an old two-story barn near Glenarm and rebuilding it in Salisbury.

Its hand-hewn timbers and weathered wood created a place that feels as though it has stood here for generations. A German stonemason handcrafted the fireplace, patterned after the one in the doctor's cabin at Lincoln's New Salem. Opened in 1998, Morning Star became a destination for lunches, showers, celebrations and gatherings.

Now its story is ready for a new chapter. With 3,672 finished SF, the property offers 1,836 SF on each level. The main floor has accommodated 50+ guests with additional enclosed patio seating, inviting porch/outdoor spaces and the stone fireplace at its heart.

Upstairs is private living space with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, large kitchen with walk-in pantry, open living/dining areas, bedroom, full bath, office nook and elevated deck. Continue the tradition or imagine a cafe, bakery, boutique, antique shop, intimate event venue, creative retreat, live/work property or remarkable rustic residence. Pre-inspected. She dreamed it. Her family built it. What will you dream here?
