Most rural communities can boast a farm that everyone knows by name, either because it's on a heavily traveled road or its owners have lived in it for generations. In Mount Pleasant, Westmoreland County, the well-maintained property at 4306 Route 981 (MLS No. 748832) fits both descriptions.

This former dairy farm on a little more than 100 acres has been in the Fenton family for more than 90 years. And during that time, the property -- which has never changed hands -- has pretty much remained the same. Priced at $399,000 by Terry Lippencott of Northwood Realty Services (www.northwood.com; 724-255-9703), it includes 5 acres and a Colonial-style farmhouse that dates to 1912 and has all of its original woodwork.

Among the four-bedroom home's turn-of-the-century charms are working pocket doors in the 16-by-15-foot living room, original hardwood floors throughout the first floor and a clawfoot tub in one of two bathrooms. There's also a built-in china closet and decorative fireplace in the large dining room. The entryway, which features a spindled staircase to the second floor, measures 14 by 14 feet -- large enough to be used as a sitting room. Newer features include an updated roof and windows.

There's also a large bank barn that is more than 50 years old and several outbuildings, including a two-car garage with an automatic door opener, and an original wagon shed. Best of all, the land is "as flat as can be. You can see for miles," Mr. Lippencott said.

Though only 5 of the farm's 107 acres are for sale, the seller would consider selling more if a buyer wanted to turn the property into, say, a horse farm or bed and breakfast, Mr. Lippencott said.

The entire farm has an assessed market value of $38,900 (westmorelandweb400.us:8088/EGSPublicAccess.htm). Two homes have sold on this portion of Route 981 in the past 18 months, one for $85,000 in April 2007 and one for $135,000 in September 2008 (www.realstats.net).
