Folly Farm

Description
A rare opportunity to own a fine and well-maintained farmhouse with a classic barn and 225 acres of land located at the end of a dirt road and with lengthy frontage on North Montpelier Pond. The circa 1865 farmhouse with 2,244 square feet of living area has been tastefully restored and has three bedrooms, two baths, a large country kitchen, mudroom, laundry room, and office. The farmhouse even has cable internet! The classic barn is a 40 x 73 foot, three-level, post-and-beam, bank-type barn with a 16 x 40 foot lean-to shed addition on the rear. Outbuildings include a 10 x 12 former milk house converted into a garden shed and a two-car garage. The landscaped grounds have beautiful flower beds and a highly productive vegetable garden. Although the property is not actively farmed, it comes with 45 acres of important farmland soils that qualify for organic certification and could support many farm uses. North Montpelier Pond, despite its modest name, is a 42-acre lake limited to motor boats traveling no faster than 5 mph. The farm also comes with a camp with two bedrooms used as a rustic guest cottage. Even with its private location the farm is just half a mile from Routes 14 and 214 and convenient to Montpelier and Barre in Central Vermont. This special property has been lovingly and responsibily cared for by one family for 35 years. In keeping with that ethic, the farm has been permanently protected by a conservation easement with the Vermont Land Trust. Four acres around the house and barn are excluded from the conservation easement, and an additional house that can be subdivided and sold separately is also permitted...I am looking for a Good Someone and kinda God Fearing Families to give it out to..Contact me for more details 402 Butterfield Road Calais, Vermont 05667
