Public Remarks: - Historic Farmhouse with Modern Comforts on 17.45 Acres in Mendota, VA - Experience the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience with this circa 1850 farmhouse, nestled on 17.45 picturesque acres in the peaceful countryside of Mendota, Virginia. Rich in history and character, this home boasts high ceilings, spacious rooms, and large closets throughout. A newer addition, completed in the early 2000s, enhances the home with a large basement featuring high ceilings, a custom Kraftmaid built-in to match the kitchen cabinetry, and a luxurious primary suite, an uncommon feature for historic farm properties. Designed for both comfort and efficiency, the home features a reverse osmosis water purification system for the kitchen and refrigerator, new high-end GE Profile kitchen appliances, and a new heat pump with updated ductwork on the original side of the house. Many areas have been upgraded with new pex water line plumbing, ensuring reliability for years to come. Energy efficiency is a priority, with solar panels feeding into the power grid to offset a significant portion of the annual power bills, a solar/electric water heater, and a Generac propane backup generator providing peace of mind. Equestrians and livestock owners will appreciate the ten-gauge 2/3 no-climb horse fencing, two separate gated pastures, each equipped with Ritchie no-freeze automatic waterers, and a large barn ideal for housing animals. The property also features new fencing and metal swing gates, creating a fenced-in accessible backyard, as well as gated pasture access from the barn to the eastern property line. Lush greenery and specialty trees, planted in partnership with the USDA, add to the property's natural beauty, while a stocked pond, filled with largemouth bass and a variety of sunfish by the Arkansas Fish Wagon, provides a peaceful retreat for fishing enthusiasts.
