Inside the home
This 15-acre St. George estate operates as two separate residences plus a collection of outbuildings that would take most buyers a full afternoon to properly tour. The 1865 heritage main house has been substantially updated — kitchen, primary suite, and bathrooms all carry modern finishes — while the bones of the original build are still visible in the structure and trim. The outdoor setup is the real differentiator here. A flagstone fire pit area, custom bar pavilion with beer taps, stone outdoor kitchen, hot tub deck, and a fully finished A-frame cabin all sit within a landscaped backyard. A private spring-fed pond with dock sits further back on the lot. The second residence — a gambrel-style A-frame with attached garage, three bedrooms, and its own kitchen and laundry — is suitable for extended family or rental income. An 80x30 steel workshop rounds out the property. Buyers should budget for due diligence on the secondary building permits, pond condition, and septic systems.
