An impressive wired barn with water service and an integrated workshop is ready for livestock, equipment, or creative projects. A detached two-car garage, greenhouse, shed, raised vegetable gardens, apple trees, blueberry bushes, and other mature plantings make it easy to embrace a self-sufficient lifestyle. Explore the wooded trails, relax by the pond, or simply enjoy the peace and privacy that surrounds you. Whether you’ve been dreaming of a hobby farm, a country estate, or a place where charm, character, and nature come together, this exceptional property offers a rare opportunity just minutes from Yarmouth.
