The 6-acre property has been fully cleared and has an active brook running through it that runs to the pond. The grounds are as stunning as they are romantic, accented by mature shade trees, privacy screening plantings, recently planted maples and oaks for the next generation, and 40 newly planted spruces to provide impressive visual depth over time. The land is predominantly flat, with some gentle sloping around the perimeter. The pond has been cared for and stocked with trout and carp to mitigate algae growth over summer. In keeping with the neighborhood, the land is conducive to horses or planting gardens. There is plenty of room for a pool, and either of the existing outbuildings can serve as a future pool house.
