Description

ATTENTION!!!! Calling All Animal Lovers and Homesteaders!!! Now being offered for sale. This lovingly lived in and cared for, Beautiful Gentleman's Farm! Be the first to come and inspect this 7-plus acre, 1890 farmhouse and property located in the quaint and thriving rural community of Forestburg, NY. The present owner was working this Farmette for several years as a successful Christmas Tree farm. Alas, it is time to move on and allow the new owners the opportunity to envision and realize their own dreams for this amazing property and home. This property also envelopes a lovely portion of the Black Brook, a 6.6-mile-long tributary to the Mongaup River in the town of Forestburg. The Black brook is home to brown and brook trout and your own private swimming hole for those hot and lazy days of summer! This property is also just a stone's throw to the Forestburg Playhouse where you can take in a show or 2 at New Yorks oldest continuously operating professional summer theater. Or take a short walk to the Mongaup Valley Wildlife Management Area where you can spend the day hiking before sitting at the blind for eagle watching at feeding time. Having a weekend soiree or July 4th shebang?! Then, put out the new sheets in the adjacent, 3-season recreational-cabin with beautifully appointed tiled bathroom! Whether it's fileting your freshly caught trout, frying up some freshly picked eggs, grilling some freshly harvested vegetables or selling some fresh goats milk, produce or wares, you won't be disappointed with what you are able to experience, realize and most importantly, how you can live your life to its fullest on this, "Slice of Heaven" mini-estate. With very little work, you can create your own vision for this beautiful property. Add desire and intention with the voice and dream that's been inside of you for years and come out to see this gentleman's farm. Make your appointment today, bring the horses and don't forget your checkbook.
