Looking for a farm or sanctuary? This incredible property has been relaunched with new photos and easier showing access since tenants just left. Enjoy the seclusion of 337 acres of fields and forest, 2 farmhouses, each with a swimming pond, and stunning views. This is a rare opportunity as it can be used for either agriculture, as a retreat center, or residential development. 5500 Betty Brook has a circa 1900 turnkey 3,200 sf farmhouse with 5 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 1 half-bath, artesian spring water, recent septic, and a generator. Other structures include a horse barn, large dairy barn with a hayloft, 2 car garage, tractor shed, and a small outbuilding, all with newer roofs. Trails and farm roads lead you past a large pond to many corners of this vast property with approximately 80 acres of open fields. Across the street you will find 5579 Betty Brook, a 2700 sf gutted farmhouse with the bones for 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, with a recently installed metal roof and well. Enjoy the peace and quiet of a backroad combined with convenient access to Oneonta, Delhi, Stamford, Roxbury, Bovina, and Andes.
