About This Home

A true Butler County gem, this enchanting 1800s farmhouse is an unofficial local landmark. This beautiful home was once part of a much larger farm and equestrian tract and even once home to the Skyway Drive-In Movie Theater. Charming details at every turn, creating a setting that feels both timeless and welcoming. Sitting on a meticulously maintained 0.77 acre lot, the 3 bedroom, 2 bath home is spacious and endearing. The main level offers a large eat-in kitchen with attached laundry, a formal living room, office or bedroom, full bathroom and a cozy sunroom. Upstairs are 3 additional bedrooms, full bath and walk-up attic. The home is well complemented by a picturesque detached two-car garage with porch, along with an income-producing 1 bed, 1 bath guest house with it's own 2 stall garage. Located within a commercial district yet surrounded by residential homes, this unique property offers exceptional flexibility. Continue to enjoy it as a private residence, explore permitted commercial uses, or create the perfect live-work opportunity. Currently used as a primary residence with rental income, the property also features a Governor’s driveway with ample off-street parking. Preserve the character and history of this remarkable home and last bit of the Stirling Farm —or begin an entirely new chapter.
