A new possibility.

Circa 1900

A farmhouse at the heart.

The farmhouse, dated to 1900 in the current listing, anchors a landscape shaped by generations of agricultural life. The property’s early dairy-farm roots are part of that story: a home and working buildings connected by the everyday care of the land.

Today, the farmhouse porch, historic barn, mature trees, and established gardens give the setting a sense of continuity. This is a country property with an identity that has grown over time.

An equestrian chapter

Horses, gardens, and farm life.

Friesian horses became a defining part of the ranch’s life, with breeding and boarding among its past activities. Livestock, garden work, and the rhythms of horse care added another chapter to the property’s agricultural roots.

The barn and stalls recall that equestrian history. The listing describes them as a restoration opportunity: character to appreciate, with condition, suitability, and any future animal use to assess carefully.

A living landscape

A legacy worth growing.

Myrtle grown for customers across the country was another part of ranch life. Growing, tending, and working outdoors belong to the story of this place as much as its buildings do.

Today’s gardens, pasture, mature trees, and wooded trail carry that connection forward. Whether your plans center on the landscape, the farmhouse, or a thoughtful restoration, the appeal is the chance to make a considered new chapter in an established country setting.
