Under Contract. Sassafras Farm Beautiful modern homestead and registered farm on over 20 acres of mixed pasture and forest with a creek where we’ve found crawfish, fish, and frogs . Approximately 3 acres of flat, cleared land planted with grasses and wildflowers, that includes a >2000 sqft garden supplied with 3 dump truck loads of mushroom compost, fence posts installed. There is also a huge asparagus bed that brings spring into your kitchen very early! This serene setting is only five minutes to 4 corners and 7 minutes to the cultural hub of Stores and UConn's Fine Arts buildings. The homestead is set back, deep in the woods and offers complete privacy. This is the ideal space to host a pig roast or s’more party. 1568sq ft plus 3 season Solarium that will grow plants all year if you leave the windows open to the main house. Start your garden early and enjoy watching your sprouts grow. Keep an herb garden for year-round delicious meals. Grow your salad greens or kale or just house plants and flowers. The house is only 4 years old. Custom stained concrete (using ecosafety products) throughout. The home features a fantastic kitchen with 2 energy efficient Maytag dishwashers, butcher block countertops, and a professional, full-sized oven and range. A large walk-in pantry/cellar can hold all your canned from last year garden produce plus all the dry goods you could need. The living room opens to the kitchen where you can sit and watch the wood stove in the winter or the flowers and birds at the feeders. Vaulted ceiling with warm, pine timber walls keep the house cozy and inviting. Solid wood doors buffer sounds and can help maintain temperature zones. Master bedroom has a vaulted ceiling, 3 walls in wood, and 2 full-sized, custom closets. There is a porch off the master. The master bathroom has a separate powder room with a urinal, custom dual-headed shower, and linen storage. A sun tube lets in enough light that you won't often find a need to use the lights. Other features include a laundry room with HE LG washing machine and electric dryer. Water is fine to drink straight out the well but the house has a state-of-the-art water filtration system. Attic has deep insulation which, combined with the earth-berm design, allows you to stay warm or cool with minimal effort. Every part of the house was assembled with energy efficiency in mind. Baseboard heat or a wood stove keep the house warm in the winter. Relax outside at hammock-henge around a campfire. Walk through the woods to the stream or up the hill to the 34.5 mile long Nipmuck Trail. Exterior plumbed propane access on the large patio. 7Kw roof mounted solar power with glass mat batteries. (Details available on request) 1000 gallon propane tank. Form F registered as a working farm. Feel free to text (or call) for more information. Moving to Vermont for work.
