Welcome to the Chestnut Grove Farm located on 53 majestic acres. This farm house was constructed in 1840 and now contains 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths. The restoration of this home was done with love by its current owners. Ever present is the warmth and charm typical of a home of this era. Original wide plank oak and yellow pine flooring, exposed hand honed beams throughout and a built-in breakfront constructed by its original owner will take you back to simpler times. Some of the extensive upgrades were 400 amp service, forced air heat and air conditioning, septic/well, and newer windows. Two fireplaces as well as a wood/coal stove in the kitchen will take the chill out of cold nights and add to the ambiance. As far as outdoor space there is plenty of room for down time on one of the two covered porches. You even have the option of having your morning coffee in the screened in porch off the kitchen. Perfectly located, at the end of a town maintained road, these sprawling 53 acres consist of flat pastures, barns, a pond, and flowing stream with a watering hole. The property extends up and over the mountain pictured in many of the photographs. Take the private road next to the house on foot, horse, ATV/snowmobile or even in a 4x4 and it will lead you to the top of the mountain where you will find many flat lots. These lots are nestled in nature with sweeping views, and an abundance of wildlife. This private road also connects to High Falls Rd providing an alternate route of ingress and egress to this homestead. The activities possible at this property really are abundant. Zoned as agricultural, it's owner believes it can also be used as an entertainment venue by obtaining a special use permit. Its expansive barn was not only used to milk cows at one time, but has hosted many country gatherings over its history. Evidence of this remains can be seen by the disco ball and lights that are still present in the barn. To the rear of the home is a one bedroom apartment with its own private deck that is currently being used as an Airbnb. The apartment has a full kitchen, full bath and its own washer and dryer. This property is ready for your outdoor adventures, entertaining, animals or crops.
