An expanded farm ranch on a pastoral acre in Fort Salonga is on the market for $1.299 million.
The area abounds in nature, says owner Grace Santora, who has a chicken coop and a plethora of plants that attract birds and butterflies.
“We’ve brought in a lot of farm-to-table aspects of it,” says Santora, who’s owned the house since 2014 and is moving out of state. “We’re able to bring in the eggs. And, we’ve got strawberry patches, some raspberry bushes.”

Built in 1958, the 4,256-square-foot five-bedroom, four-bathroom home on Northfield Drive features an open floor plan, hardwood floors, an oversized kitchen with stainless steel appliances and granite counters, family room with cathedral wood beamed ceiling, and dining room with slatted wood ceiling.
Most of the house has been updated within the last 10 years, including the kitchen and bathrooms, notes Santora, who installed new insulation, wiring, a cesspool and, most recently, a new HVAC system.

“The layout is perfection for entertaining and someone who truly enjoys cooking.”
