Excellent equestrian / horse potential with historic 5-stall barn and fencing for pastures/paddocks already in place.

The main “Stone House” c. 1820 - with period details and 10’ ceilings has 4 bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half-baths, gourmet kitchen, a library-den, a wonderful living room and 3 fireplaces on the main level. A stone patio/covered porch spans the rear of the house, and a 2-car attached garage.
