Description

Introducing the Josiah D. Prescott Farmhouse and barn. This is the first offering of said property outside of the family since 1720. Beautifully sited on what has locally been known as Prescott Corner, the house, barn, and lot reflect the remarkably preserved historic features of days long gone by. This is indeed a rare find. The stonewall, the fruit trees, the open field, and the structural integrity of the Italianate-style Farmhouse with attached shed, as well as the magnificent barn which predates...Introducing the Josiah D. Prescott Farmhouse and barn. This is the first offering of said property outside of the family since 1720. Beautifully sited on what has locally been known as Prescott Corner, the house, barn, and lot reflect the remarkably preserved historic features of days long gone by. This is indeed a rare find. The stonewall, the fruit trees, the open field, and the structural integrity of the Italianate-style Farmhouse with attached shed, as well as the magnificent barn which predates the existing house, all give one pause. You cannot help but exhale and shrug off the stress of the outside world when you drive by...let alone set foot on the soil. With its strong bones, high ceilings, generously-sized rooms, front and back staircases, coupled with the potential the shed offers, this property affords one the opportunity to create the home of their dreams while preserving the "unique aspect of this property". Whether you choose to make this your permanent or summer home, you not only will be the steward of the history and the physical property, but as you and yours create your memories, you will also contribute to the bountiful history. Please review the limited Preservation Easement. Shown by appointment...the Josiah D. Prescott Farmhouse.
