Description

Welcome to this beautiful historic farm dating back to 1825. At one time known as the Thompson Farm, in 1995 it was purchased by the current owner who lovingly restored it to its former glory. In 1999 it became the "Jersey Girls Farm". Attention was given to retain all of the antique charm, including keeping the original slate roof on main house, all original doors and original wide board floors. The house was also modernized with conveniences such as a new heating system, new wiring, new windows...Welcome to this beautiful historic farm dating back to 1825. At one time known as the Thompson Farm, in 1995 it was purchased by the current owner who lovingly restored it to its former glory. In 1999 it became the "Jersey Girls Farm". Attention was given to retain all of the antique charm, including keeping the original slate roof on main house, all original doors and original wide board floors. The house was also modernized with conveniences such as a new heating system, new wiring, new windows (retaining the original design), and a full array of solar panels to make the house fully self-sufficient. You will find plenty of room and charm inside, beginning with the large country kitchen which includes a working antique Glenwood stove. There's a huge pantry which doubles as a laundry room. The dining room, living room, library, one bedroom, and spacious 1/2 bath complete the downstairs living area. On the second level are 3 large bedrooms and a full bath in the main structure. The expansive master suite even has a spa tub! This room has a 2nd stairway which leads you back to the kitchen. On almost 33 acres of open and wooded land, all of which sits at the end of a town-maintained road. There's a large pond for swimming, fishing, or even kayaking. 5 outbuildings including a nice 1800's 30 x 80 barn! Endless possibilities: small dairy or horse farm, Airbnb, or bed and breakfast. Just 5 minutes to Chester. Shopping, hospital, skiing at Okemo, I-91 - all within 15 - 20 minutes!
