The stewardship of this 194 acre property for the last 28 years has been exemplary. The woodlands have been well maintained and managed not only in terms of the health of the forest but including miles of trails for it's enjoyment by horseback riding, hiking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing and mountain biking. The roughly 15 acre wildlife pond has stone retaining walls and walking trails to access the excellent fishing options. It is also an excellent wildlife preserve providing home to many bird populations and woodland animals. The immediate area around the residence has been landscaped with serpentine stone walls, orchards and berry bushes. The ca 1835 farmhouse has just undergone a complete renovation which preserved much of the original fabric of the house while providing a gourmet kitchen, open spaces for entertaining, a separate guest suite on top of the four bedrooms in the main block of the house. A first floor master suite occupies the northern end of residence. The screened porch is accessed off the spacious mudroom which also houses a half bath and laundry facilities. An antique wood cookstove and living room wood stove add to the ambiance. The barn has a guest suite on the second floor while the first floor has a workshop, wood storage and room for one vehicle. There is a two room writers cabin over looking the pond built by the previous owner who is a Pulitzer Prize winning playwright. Clearly the sense peacefulness pervade this very special property.
