Arlington Farmhouse on a Large Lot

This Arlington listing sits on a big, grassy lot, though it is in clear view of some denser high-rise areas.

Perhaps the coolest part of the farmhouse is the oversized garage in the back, which has a raw upper level that could be finished and turned into a work area, studio or guest room.
