This private home is on a truly special and unique location surrounded by a large family estate. The grounds are surrounded by the original stone walls of the farm pastures. Much to love and proud to own. Sit back on your secluded wooden deck looking at the mountain-side above and enjoy the pastoral view of the sunset across the large private pond and the "forever wild" State forest preserve surrounding the property.
