Experience one of the world's great vacations, every day, while discovering the power to improve your health and increase your enjoyment of life through country walks and stress management. .. in your own back yard. “Blackberry Farm, ” 19785 Baker Road, Rural Gambier, Knox County, OH, near Kenyon College. Renovated Farmhouse & 99 Acres of Heaven. 32 acres of tillable ground. 45 acres of mature, professionally-managed woods of walnut, oak and cherry. Large bank barn and other nice buildings Active gas well with free gas to house and limited income stream. Four pastures with new high-tensile electric fencing. Lots of whitetail and turkeys…. When’s the last time you had smores around the campfire or looked for salamanders with your kids or grandkids? Like the idea of hiking trails for hours and still be on your own property? Here’s your escape! Whether for a weekend getaway, a summer retreat, or a forever lifestyle change, in today’s hectic world, we all need this farm! Secluded and quiet, yet only four minutes from Gambier and the Kenyon College community. A unique property with everything you could want. Mature woods, gently rolling terrain, pastures, two streams, hiking trails, campsites, great hunting of whitetail, turkey and squirrel. There’s even a separate bunk house off the deck for the kids! The circa 1890 farmhouse has been renovated, including an efficient gas furnace and heat pump, a large wraparound deck with great country views. Want land to split up and develop into lots? This is NOT THE PROPERTY, as it is in a land trust to prevent that and to preserve its beauty and tranquility for generations. If that is what appeals to you, and you’d like to have a place where fewer than a dozen cars go by a day (you wouldn’t notice anyways as the home sits so far back the lane), than this is the place. If you’d like to have a private estate where you could walk for hours and still be on your own property, don’t miss out on this. Like the sound of it, but not into farming? Plenty of fine area local farmers would be willing to work an arrangement with you on a win-win basis. Inquire now and enjoy summer on your own country getaway. Possible Farmhouse B & B.
