Property Description
Dear Meadow Farm is a project that will be worth the time and effort for whoever is looking for that combination of the charm of an older home, enough land to farm or raise livestock while knowing that most of the area around them will remain in its natural state. This home was purchased by a family in the mid 1960s who were looking for a farm to renovate with enough room to raise livestock, harvest their own lumber and provide a place for four generations to explore and enjoy. A section of the home suffered water damage from a burst pipe necessitating the removal of damaged plaster ceilings and walls as well as some of the wood floors. But from this misfortune comes the opportunity for someone else to realize their dream of renovating a 19th Century Farmhouse. The ''bones'' are all there and in some ways the removal of walls opens up the possibilities to modernize a classic structure so that it will last for another 150 years. Redesigning the layout can give you the opportunity to open up spaces to bring in more light, make bigger closets, modernize the kitchen and bathrooms and create spaces as you want them without having to settle for making due with what already exists. The attached barn has almost as much square footage as the house itself and creates a lot of options such as a possible an in-law apartment, extra living space, woodworking shop, studio, etc. The second barn has been used for cows in the past and has two floors, cement floors, water and electricity. Although it could use some exterior paint it appears to be a solid structure that should last a long time with the proper maintenance. The property consists of 12.4 acres of mostly open and level fields surrounded by stone walls and trees. Behind the property you will find acres of conserved land with trails through forests and across bogs and brooks, there is even a small waterfall. While the property feels like it is way out in the country it is less than 4 miles to the center of Newcastle.
