As was pointed out, the Principal Residence and the associated personal-use land can potentially qualify for the $250,000/$500,000 Principal Residence exclusion.

Things that are not part of the Principal Residence, such as business/farm buildings and business/farmland would not be eligible.

There IS a $ 250/500,000 exclusion for the sale of a qualified principal residence. 

Is that what you are talking about?  If so, how has the farm house been treated in prior years?
