About this House

Mickle Knox c1845, originally established in 1762, comprising 358 acres, seemlessly blends historic charm and modern luxury. The home now boasts five ensuite bedrooms, a beautifully updated kitchen, central air and heat, plus a stylish outdoor kitchen perfect for entertaining. At the same time original details have been preserved combining old and new to offer the best of both worlds. Also added is a pavilion for gatherings and there are outbuildings ready for new uses. The barn, with roughed-in plumbing, provides a blank canvas for transformation, and the yellow outbuilding, dating from 1770, could be the perfect office or honeymoon suite. Mickle Knox continues to evolve, offering a welcoming home rich in history and comfort. Please do not drive in without an appointment. Detailed brochure in the documents section.

    "Lived in Farmville for over a year when I landed a job there. Never seen such friendly people, and such a beautiful area. It was peaceful. Almost as if it was out of a movie. The downtown shops have great items, and this city has everything you can need. This area is perfect for couples that are looking to retire, or people looking to start a family. If it werent for me having to move again, I would have stayed in Farmville forever. "

    "I live close to Farmville, and I know this neighborhood, and this particular house is down the street from a private school and a golf course, there is a university as well as a private college close by so loads of opportunities for families with kids of all ages, and students from the university. This is the perfect area for people who want to turn over a property, because students pay more than what a mortgage would be for room and board at the university. Young couples and retirees have plenty to do as well. "
