A truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own one of Oakland Township's most storied and iconic properties. Nestled on just under 5 breathtaking, wooded acres and surrounded by an original stone wall, this remarkable 1835 Victorian farmhouse seamlessly blends historic charm with thoughtful modern updates. Offering over 2,900 square feet of living space, the home features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 beautifully renovated baths, and a stunning farmhouse kitchen outfitted with GE Cafe appliances. Flooded with natural light, every room showcases the character and craftsmanship of a bygone era, including exquisite plaster walls, intricate moldings, and architectural details that are simply irreplaceable. Recent improvements include a freshly painted exterior, brand-new roof (house and barn) and skylights, a new deck, and an inviting inground pool—creating the perfect setting for both everyday living and entertaining. The property also features a 2-car attached garage and an extraordinary approximately 4,000-square-foot heated and air-conditioned pole barn offering a rare combination of industrial, workshop, storage, and living space. Rich in Rochester history, this celebrated residence has its own Wikipedia page, and a comprehensive historical binder prepared as part of a college thesis will be included with the home, documenting its fascinating origins and significance. Private, peaceful, and unlike anything else on the market, this exceptional estate feels worlds away while being just 10 minutes north of downtown Rochester. Homes of this caliber and historical importance seldom become available. Do not miss your chance to own a true piece of local history. This is more than a home… it’s a legacy!
