Inside the home
This is a 1890 century home on 6.75 acres in the Lynden/St. George area, with 623 feet of frontage on Governors Rd and a working equestrian setup — 4-stall horse barn, multiple paddocks, run-in sheds, implement shed, and a heated 2-bay detached garage with a full workshop. The house itself is a 1980s addition grafted onto the original structure, giving you open-concept family room and kitchen space alongside formal rooms in the older section. Finishes throughout are dated — original grey cabinets and white appliances in the kitchen, wallpaper and suspended ceilings in the front rooms, original bathrooms. A buyer will want to budget for interior updates. The land and agricultural infrastructure are the real story here. Fairchild's Creek borders the property, there's a three-season screened porch overlooking the pasture, and the whole property has the feel of a long-held, cared-for rural estate. Less than 20 minutes to the 403.
