2574 East St, Bridport, VT 05734

This 88.7 acre 1880 property noted by recent appraisal as; "Large acreage, high quality, 'Gentleman's Farm', rural estate" is perched on the south end of Snake mountain in Bridport with breath taking westerly views of the lower Champlain valley and Adirondack mountain range. This 4 bedroom farmhouse with unique historical trim and details is untouched. Features wood burning fireplace in the living room and walk in pantry with original cupboards. Original moldings and hardware throughout provides a glimpse back to the 1800's. Barns, silo and old windmill completes what farm life used to be like - even the dinner bell still hangs! Formerly a small dairy herd of 20 +/- cows, it once was owned by J.C.S. Hamilton who bred champion merino sheep and was the assistant Judge to the county court in Middlebury. A few apple trees left from the original orchard dot the pasture. Partial meadows, "high value" hardwoods & ponds - this property is a gem! And the views of the south end of the Champlain valley with the Adirondack mountain range are priceless. Recent appraisal notes: "Vacant tracts of land sell infrequently, especially in Bridport." Priced below appraisal of $570K! Another 53.62 acres mostly open meadow and tillable agricultural land available corner of Town Line Road and East Street that extends directly in front of this farmhouse. MLS# 4757169
