The 85+/- acre Gilman Farm is a local landmark having been a working dairy farm for over a hundred years. The original farmhouse and barn have long been removed and a new barn was built in 1953, and a new house built in 1965. The house is a modest Ranch-style and the current barn is an impressive structure built on a concrete foundation capable of storing 5000 bales of hay on the upper level with stanchions for 40 head of cattle on the ground level. Aside from the obvious use for livestock, the barn is perfect for any number of home business uses such as wood working, auto repair, studio space, etc. The land occupies the west side of Vermont Route 12 with approximately 85 acres on the east side of the road also currently available for sale. A tunnel under Route 12 exists as a way for livestock to access the pastures on both sides of the road in the event the entire 170-acre farm were to be purchased. The 85 acres is a mix of pasture with the majority in forest land from which local and long distance views exist with clearing creating many opportunities for building sites.
