Tavern Farm
avern Farm is a great example of early 19th century New England architecture. Originally dating back to a King's Grant, this property has evolved over time, once being a thriving tavern and more recently known as Clark Hill Farm when it was wrapped in hundreds of acres from the 1960's forward. There are good covenants in place (and surrounding this farm) on land that was once part of the original farm, keeping house lots at a minimum of 5 acres each, affording everyone plenty of elbow room. The house has 7 fireplaces, with the 4 on the first floor used by the current owner in the not so distant past. Wood floors, some original and some reproduced, are throughout the house. The kitchen is newer and boasts one of the original fireplaces. Upstairs you will find generous front bedrooms with fireplaces. The 3rd bedroom has been converted into a large full bath needing finishing touches. The...
avern Farm is a great example of early 19th century New England architecture. Originally dating back to a King's Grant, this property has evolved over time, once being a thriving tavern and more recently known as Clark Hill Farm when it was wrapped in hundreds of acres from the 1960's forward. There are good covenants in place (and surrounding this farm) on land that was once part of the original farm, keeping house lots at a minimum of 5 acres each, affording everyone plenty of elbow room. The house has 7 fireplaces, with the 4 on the first floor used by the current owner in the not so distant past. Wood floors, some original and some reproduced, are throughout the house. The kitchen is newer and boasts one of the original fireplaces. Upstairs you will find generous front bedrooms with fireplaces. The 3rd bedroom has been converted into a large full bath needing finishing touches. The master bedroom area is to the rear in the 2nd floor ell and it has been sheetrocked and roughed-in for another bath and features a walk-in closet. The 3rd floor is a charming space that had a kitchenette (counters and sink are still there) in the sitting room, 2 small end rooms and a vintage bath with clawfoot tub. It is great guest or studio space and has a separate heat zone. Besides the unfinished MBR, there are renovation items that need completion inside and out such as wiring, finish work, and trim in some of the newer designed areas.
A 5 stall Center Hill barn was built about 13 years ago. It stands tall to compliment the height of the house. Tavern Farm is a lovely piece of history and its land is 16+ acres w/about 11 open and includes 2 - 1/2 acre grass paddocks accessed from the in-out stalls, and two very large pastures. More could be fenced.
