Looking for a home in the country for you and your horses? Or for a second-home vacation retreat or weekend getaway? You'll love this rustic cottage on 16+ acres with extensively fenced level grassy pastures, run-in sheds, two barns, a 1/2 mile galloping track and an idyllic screened gazebo overlooking Millers River where you can enjoy peaceful evenings serenaded by crickets and owls. It's a place of peace and privacy: a natural paradise where you can simply relax, let go, and ride. Best of all, this property abuts 50+ miles of wooded trails that meander through the breathtaking Dennison State Park and Birch Hill Wildlife Management Area--you can explore it on horseback (or on foot, cross-country skis or mountain bikes) for weeks and never see it all! The barns can accommodate 8-10 horses and they include space for cars and a workshop. All just a few minutes drive to the beautiful Lake Dennison, where you can enjoy swimming, kayaking, and fishing, in season.
