According to Realtor Hallen Meredith, this King, Ont., home has been in the same family for 80 years.
And when you look at the photos of the listing, it’s easy to see why the family stuck with it as long as it did.
The quaint four-bedroom farmhouse with log exterior is like a breath of fresh air and a hot bath all rolled into one.

“Every once in a while a property comes along that harkens back to the days of a bygone era. This property is the kind of property where memories are made and the guest list is always long,” Meredith wrote in the listing.

The home sits on 50 acres of land that includes a tree-lined drive, rolling fields and surrounding woodland.
The master bedroom has hardwood floors, a vaulted ceiling and built-in wardrobes.
Not only do you have maximum privacy, but also incredible views.
The pantry off the kitchen.
The home itself is nothing spectacular—just under 1,500 square feet—but it’s charming, cozy, and full of character.
The great room.
The center of the house is a large great room (read: family room) with a fireplace, soaring cathedral ceilings and warm hardwood floors and walls.
Bedroom.
The four bedrooms are located off the great room.

They are cozy and all have a wardrobe.
The galley kitchen.
The kitchen, also off the great room, is sun-filled with an heirloom stove that is an antique lover’s dream.
The server.
The kitchen also has a pantry and service.
The porch at the back of the house.
“Whether you’re listening to the hummingbirds on the back porch or curled up in front of the imposing stone fireplace in the great room. The world seems to slow down,” Meredith said.
The property backs to conservation lands.
The porch in particular looks like something out of a movie where you’d curl up and watch a summer thunderstorm while sipping some tea.
There is also a loft which would make a lovely studio or extra bedroom.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t throw an epic party here—Meredith mentions that the house has hosted some rocking tea parties and dances since the late 1930s.
The storage barn.
In addition to the main house, the property has a century-old barn that’s great for storage, according to the realtor.
The house has an attached garage.
The property also features many private walking trails and an indoor saltwater pool for those hot summer days.
The bathroom.
The only downside to this otherwise dream home is the unique bathroom situation.
