This prime Oak Ridge farmhouse is a rare find! Step into a blend of history, heart, and wide-open space with this 1921 farmhouse in Oak Ridge, gracefully set on over six acres of land with a private pond, barn, garage, and a charming log cabin overlooking the water. You feel set far out in the country, yet you’re just a very short walk to two town parks, the local elementary school, shopping, and restaurants. It’s the kind of place that instantly slows your pace, where mornings start on the porch and evenings end casting a line or watching the sun settle over the pond.
Set in the Oak Ridge Historic district, the farmhouse is rich with character, very livable now yet ready to be restored. Outside, the land tells the story: room to roam, space for hobbies or animals, and a peaceful setting. This rare balance of country living with everyday convenience is hard to find, especially in a location like this.
Adding even more opportunity, there is an adjoining 3-acre parcel also available (listed seperately), allowing a buyer to create a combined 9+ acre property in a prime Oak Ridge location, ideal for an expanded homestead.
Whether you envision fishing at dusk, hosting family for weekends at the cabin, or simply enjoying the freedom of land without sacrificing location, this property offers a lifestyle that’s increasingly hard to come by. This is a legacy property with room to grow.
