Property Description

There’s something about this traditional brick farmhouse that just draws you in. Maybe it’s the way it sits back from the road, tucked away on nearly five acres, offering a sense of privacy and calm. Or maybe it’s the wide covered porch stretching across the front, practically inviting you to sit down with a cup of coffee and stay awhile. Step inside, and the feeling continues. Natural light pours through the windows, dancing across the hardwood floors that flow from room to room. The living room greets you first, then opens into a family room where you can imagine gathering on quiet evenings. The kitchen, with its butcher block island and breakfast bar looking into the dining area, feels like the true heart of the home. At the back, a mudroom with an attached laundry and half bath keeps life practical. Upstairs, the bedrooms are spacious and full of character, each with its own personality. The primary suite feels like a retreat, complete with a whirlpool tub and a skylight that makes every shower feel like a moment under the open sky. Exposed brick peeks through in just the right places, reminding you of the history and soul built into these walls. Outside, the story continues with two old barns and additional outbuildings that seem to whisper possibilities — space for hobbies, animals, or simply the joy of having room to spread out. And with downtown Waterloo just minutes away, it’s the best of both worlds: peaceful country living, close to everything you need!
