Your family's homesteading paradise awaits on this 23-acre, 5,000 square foot dream home. The picturesque, winding, ¼ mile-long driveway brings you to a classic Cape Cod Farmhouse with a wrap-around porch, perfectly placed on a hill in the center of the property for stunning views and complete wooded privacy. The acres of yard-space surrounding the house are ideal for children to safely run and play in summer, climb in the tree house in the autumn, or enjoy the many sledding hills in winter.
This classic farmhouse, known as 'The Christmas House in the Woods,' is both spacious and cozy. The stunning knotty pine great room features soaring cathedral ceilings and a hand-crafted natural fireplace. The screen in porch and swimming pool make this even more perfect for any family
An additional 20 acres is available on an adjacent parcel, please ask listing agent for details. This classic farmhouse, known as 'The Christmas House in the Woods,' is both spacious and cozy. The stunning knotty pine great room features soaring cathedral ceilings and a hand-crafted natural fireplace. The connected loft area provides space for children to enjoy while still being within earshot of everyone downstairs. Windows around the great room feature spacious views in all directions. The flowing stream that cuts through the back part of the property can be enjoyed from the kitchen and dining room windows.
Built in 2004, the house features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, a great room, a den, a mud-room, and more. Much of the interior is finished with hand-stained knotty pine walls and hardwood floors. All the appliances and mechanicals are new in 2022, including propane furnace, central AC, septic pumps, electrical, and more.
Please note that the Acreage was downsized from 43 Acres to 23 Acres recently as the back parcel are removed from the offering.
Acres of field space in the front of the property provide opportunities for expansive gardens, animal coralls, pastureland, and more. The deep woods in the back of the property are ideal for hunting, trapping, camping, and hiking.
This amazing property is your family's gathering place, your homesteading hobby farm, and your Up-North hunting property rolled into one. The sellers are being forced to leave due to employment demands, opening the door for another family to call this wonderful place home.
