Historic Whisper Farm is a 43 acre farmstead, rich in character, beauty and function, with equestrian facilities, a recently restored 1817 farmhouse and three newly built cottages with an easy, direct drive to Aiken along the 302 equestrian corridor. Currently, Whisper Farm is an established hospitality farm with a myriad of potential for boarding, training, agriculture, hospitality, event venue or multi-generational compound. You will love the expansive, 'big sky' views as well as the ambiance of the farm's open and breezy land with old established tree lines, 8 black-board fenced pastures/paddocks and 2-mile perimeter trail system. Two large grass schooling areas are suitable for polo, eventing, jump fields or arenas, and fox hunting territory adjoins - so it is super easy to join the meet! The renovated farmhouse and 3 newly constructed cottages, created from re-purposed structures, are sited to offer privacy; each are complete with a full kitchen, laundry & unique designer features. Whisper Farm's 3 bedroom, 2 bath farmhouse, c. 1817, has been completely rebuilt within the past 5 years with new electric, HVAC, plumbing & more. If you love old houses, you will appreciate the heart pine floors, 10 ft. high plank ceilings & vintage chandeliers while enjoying the comforts of walk-in closets, renovated baths, a private courtyard & rear deck. Another highlight is the deep Southern front porch, ideal for hosting hunt breakfasts, weekend brunches and farm-to-table summer dinners while taking in the sunset across additional acreage in open fields found opposite Union Academy Road. Rustic and elegant, Meadow Lodge, the largest of the farm's cottages, is a great place to host a party or guests. The vaulted ceiling, exposed beams & open floor plan give this 1 bedroom, 1 Bath cottage, with sleeping loft, a distinct appeal. Cotton Cottage is a charming 1 bedroom / 1 Bath with a rear deck from which to enjoy the morning sunrise. Newly finished and appealing 1 bedroom / 1 bath Garden Folly has 3 pavilions, for living, dining & sleeping, with French doors opening to the connecting hallways. Horse & rider will find 3 separate shed row style block barns, each equipped with a hay/feed room. Each stall opens directly to pasture/paddock to serve as a 'run-in' as well. Underground water lines, with frost-free hydrants, run to each pasture and barn. The stall and turn-out arrangement is ideal when multiple horses & riders are in residence. The 35 acre parcel across Union Academy Road, offered separately, is available for those seeking additional horse facilities or land for agricultural pursuits. Whisper Farm has several sites for the addition of rental cottages or farmettes for those interested in expanding the equestrian hospitality venue aspect of the property. The memorable landscape at Whisper Farm features established old-growth trees including pecans, magnolias & oaks; wildflower meadows, a terraced hydrangea & azalea garden / venue + a stone fire pit area for fall night fun. The structures' mechanicals are in good order with new underground electrical service, panels & wiring; 5 septic systems; well with new pressure tank & well pump; underground water lines; lightning protection & more. Whisper Farm's locale offers the allure of stunning countryside combined with proximity to Wagener, Columbia, SC and its airport, and to Aiken, approximately a 23 minute direct drive to town. Polo venues, eventing training facilities, show grounds & fox hunting fixtures are nearby for those seeking the full Aiken equestrian lifestyle experience!
