Property Description
A special home & historic gem, this circa 1850 4 BR 2 bath farmhouse is a testament to its heritage with gorgeous stone interior walls, wide plank wood floors, a claw foot tub & other charming period elements. An impeccable remodeling of the 1st & 2nd floors has brought it stylishly up to date with modern features & finishes like those in the gourmet kitchen w/Bosch stainless appliances. Nestled well back from the road, this rare property overlooks tranquil woods, a lovely stream & spring-fed pond where friends & family can fish & swim. Right outside the kitchen you can savor nature on the peaceful porch. Of its 71 pastoral acres, 25 are tillable, making it safe & good for horses as the owner never sprayed chemicals on the grounds! The story goes that sheep were once raised here for wool. A guest house w/its own well & septic offers the comfort of a living room, kitchen, BR & loft. Plus there's a wonderful late 1700's-built Switzer-style historic bank barn, 24x12 smokehouse and 3-car garage.
