Description
Historic Cornwall farmstead with 30.11 surveyed acres of organic-certified pasture and hayfields, beautiful southerly views, and an eclectic collection of barns and outbuildings. Built in 1849, this distinctive Greek Revival home offers 2,682 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 1 full bath, 1¾ bath, 2 half baths, kitchen, mudroom, larder, living and dining rooms, plus a family room, currently used as an office, with a gas fireplace and etched glass windowpane. Classic columns and mature maples create a gracious approach, while original hardwood floors, tin ceilings, woodwork, and windows preserve the craftsmanship and character of the 19th century. The home has also benefited from important updates, including new electrical service, plumbing and fixtures in 2006, a newer oil-fired furnace, heat pump in the office, new well pump and pressure tank, water heater, and UV water filtration system. The land is well suited to a variety of country pursuits, from gardening, livestock, and equestrian use to haying, orcharding, workshops, hobbies, or simply enjoying the open landscape. Three mature apple trees represent more than 30 varieties. The substantial farm buildings add remarkable versatility: a 36' x 176' single story barn, 52' x 84' attached utility shed, 32' x 40' workshop, 40' x 96' pole building, and a charming 19th-century garage and granary. Clear-span construction in several of the larger buildings provides generous space for equipment, vehicles, projects, animals, storage, or other permitted uses. Rich in Cornwall history and Vermont character, the property has an unusual combination of acreage, open land, historic architecture, and useful outbuildings. Whether your vision is a gentleman's farm, a working agricultural property, a place for horses and hobbies, or simply a beautiful old house with room to spread out, this is a rare opportunity to create something distinctly your own.
