farmstead
Country living complex
A farmstead is a farm property including its buildings—the house, barns, sheds, and surrounding land as a unit.
The word emphasizes the physical place rather than the agricultural operation: The old farmstead had been in the family for generations.
It often evokes rural permanence or heritage.
