The house sits on top of the hill offering incredible views of adjoining bottomland with daily sunrise views from the front porch and sunset views off the back deck. This upgraded home boasts new dark wood floors throughout, a real stone masonry floor to ceiling encased wood burning stove in the living room, a kitchen with granite countertops, a chef island, off-white painted cabinets that go well with the dark granite and slate backsplash, and a formal dining rooms next to a conveniently located pocket office.

The large windows in each room provide a warming natural light and views of the farm. An additional family room is located on the lower level and has a full bath, access to the oversized three car garage, and a walkout to the back patio. Other great features include ample storage space, an unfinished basement, a suspended porch which offers storm shelter, and a 40x60 pole barn with ¾ inch concrete floors.
The farm is currently home to two horses, over a dozen chickens, one mama cow, a bull calf and an incredible amount of wildlife which includes deer, turkey, and fish in the stocked pond. The property lays long and rolling, which allows for great recreational use and makes the property feel larger than 46 acres. The farm is accompanied with a good mowed trail system. Â The large mature timber scattered throughout creates secluded fields and pockets of grassland, ideal for food plot locations or a private picnic setting. Two wet weather creeks are on the property which offers more fun for the family and a water source for the wildlife.
The property is located on the eastern side of the 560 acre Watkins Mill State Park. The state park features a 100-acre lake with a paved bicycle path around it, plentiful fishing, a picturesque campground and choice picnic spots. The home has a gated drive off 172nd Street, ¼ mile east of blacktop Baxter Road. This is a turnkey property offering several options for a family, ranching, and those that enjoy the outdoors!
