Magnificent meadows, vibrant views, and statuesque stonewalls! Situated on a dead-end road, 179 acres of mostly agricultural tillable land along with some pasture and forest timber land. The upper northern portion is in Chapter 61A and the rest to the south is in a conservation restriction. The 1880 colonial style farmhouse offers 12 rooms, 5 bedrooms and 2 1/2 baths.
