About This Home

Introducing Lightning Ridge Farm-A very rare opportunity to own 51 incredible acres showcasing this outstanding country equestrian estate that has been owned by the same family since the 1930's. Enjoy the pastoral views of pure "bliss" and beauty as the long drive winds past the many fenced pastures currently occupied by sheep and the "caretaker" Llama. You will be greeted by a charming 3 bedroom Royal Barry Wills ranch style home perched on a knoll surrounded by stunning gardens, and panoramic views of the pond and meadows. In addition to the main house, there is a guest/caretakers 3 bedroom Cape with its own private entrance and just a short golf cart drive away from the main house on the cart path. This exceptional farm continues to be enhanced with additional grazing fields, the main horse barn, additional small barns and sheds along with access to trails. For those looking for a family compound supported by a "top ranked" school system, this is an exceptional choice. It's magical!
