Meadowbrook Farm- Step into a storybook setting with this charming Circa 1800s home, nestled on over 10 acres in Derby. Tucked away in nature, the property features a whimsical secret garden with an arched entry, rolling open fields, and a private peninsula that extends into Derby Pond—offering a truly serene waterfront experience. The home itself exudes timeless elegance, with a classic split rail fence along the front and a durable standing seam metal roof. Original features such as wide pine floors, built-in corner cabinets, and solid wood doors lend warmth and character throughout. The original metal ceiling and hand-hewn beams speak to the home's historic craftsmanship. Formal dining/parlor area with a Vermont Castings gas stove sets the scene for cozy gatherings, while a light-filled sunroom behind the kitchen provides the perfect space to enjoy backyard views and birdsong. Upstairs, you'll find three bedrooms with charming built-in drawers, two full baths, and a delightful clawfoot tub—ideal for relaxing after time spent in the flower gardens. Outside, the detached three-car garage offers storage above. Launch your kayak from the brook that winds gently through the property and flows directly into Derby Pond. A truly rare find, this private and magical property offers the tranquility of a country estate with the convenience of being just minutes from town. Additional 5+/- acres across the road for an additional $60,000.
