Situated with outstanding views of the vast meadows and mountains of the CT River Valley, this 1917 Cottage is complemented by two parcels with over 95 acres of recreation and forestland. The property is steeped in history and enriched by the elegance and character of its age. Whether you buy it as a cottage protected by a large land base with outstanding views, significant timber value and privacy, or as land with an elegant 3 season cottage, you will be rewarded by the opportunity to own it. Once a massive dairy farm with formal gardens, tennis courts and stonework, it was established by Federal Judge George Morris and his wife Lula, each renowned as author, conservationist and public servant. The Morrises inspired generations of their family to love and enjoy this property, and the portion with the cottage is now offered for the first time in over a century. Its character, architecture and warmth, its history and connections, will inspire you to become yet another steward of a remarkable North Country Legacy. Some contents are available. It is offered thoughtfully to encourage refurbishing, improvement and enhancement at only $269,000.
