MIDDLEMIST FARM - Has to be seen to be believed. Nestled in a stunning landscape, this 1835 Delaware County farmhouse offers end-of-the-road PRIVACY AND SECLUSION, with two old chestnut post-and-beam barns and a pond on 20 lush acres of mowed fields and woods teaming with wildlife. In this magical setting, beginning with the name Middlemist (only two families have lived here in 150 years), you enter another era. Yet this gorgeous property is only 5 paved miles from town and Middlemist Road is itself town-maintained. There are no other houses in sight, and this gem is so quiet, peaceful, and isolated you will never hear a sound except nature itself (nor ever see a glaring headlight pass your window). The house itself is sunny, airy and charming. Noted WRITER and ARTIST have kept this 1835 Farmhouse as original as possible. Inviting open porch welcomes you in. Bay-windowed living room, a light-filled family room; a real farmhouse kitchen with wood burning cook stove and, believe it or not, a minstrel's loft. Convenient pantry/wood room. Laundry/mudroom. Plus 4-5 bedrooms and writer's studio. Amenities include a large 3-STORY DAIRY BARN, classic CARRIAGE HOUSE and SPRING-FED POND. All of this with age old field stone fences, towering old maples and pines, plus old perennial gardens and lilacs. COME VISIT, IT WILL TAKE YOUR BREATH AWAY.
