A TRUE FARMHOUSE on 5.21 Acres in Fairmont Take a step back in time with this true Southern farmhouse situated on 5.21 acres in Fairmont. From the rocking-chair front porch to the impressive 14-foot ceilings, this unique property offers the charm of yesterday with plenty of room to create a new tomorrow. The main level features three bedrooms and two full baths, including a primary bedroom with a private office. The light-filled kitchen is surrounded by windows and features an antique farmhouse sink. A large laundry room offers even more old-fashioned functionality with an additional kitchen area and sink--perfect for canning and preserving the bounty from your own garden.

This flexible area includes additional rooms and a full bath, providing plenty of possibilities for creating additional usable space. Outside is where this property really begins to shine.

The extensive road frontage and acreage offer intriguing possibilities for buyers looking for a property that can be more than just a home. Buyers should verify any proposed subdivision, development, zoning, and utility requirements with the appropriate authorities. Despite the country feel, you're conveniently located in town--including being within a golf-cart ride of the Fairmont Golf Course.
