About This Home

As of September 2021

Your own personal park and nature preserve! Steeped in romance and folklore, Hillandale Farm is located on 588 acres of lush, fertile land in Brooklyn, CT. This property is brimming with historic New England charm including rolling hay fields, unhindered views of the large pond, the Quinebaug Valley and seemingly endless stone walled pastures. The abundance of fertile soil offers opportunities for farming, husbandry, equestrian sports, orchard or vineyard development and so much more.
This sophisticated escape was once home to the Golden Lamb Buttery, an upscale post and beam restaurant considered one of the regions first farm-to-table dining experiences and destination wedding venues. The well-preserved 1740 colonial farmhouse includes four bedrooms, wide-plank floors, multiple fireplaces, greenhouse, workshop and large attached barn/garage. The area of Connecticut, known as the “Quiet Corner,” offers natural therapy from the stress of life and yet is in close proximity to Boston and New York City. This landmark estate fuses the eclectic, the whimsical… the extraordinary.
