Animals, agriculture, art retreat, education center, idyllic country home? This pastoral property offers it all. The warm and welcoming farmhouse enjoys a peaceful setting on 38 acres, encompassing farmland, pasture, and protected conservation lands. House and barn are both freshly painted. Offering the character of an antique home, it’s graced with space galore, and modern oversize windows which overlook established perennial gardens, raspberry bushes, and a small orchard. Sunny plots for vegetable gardening, chickens, or greenhouses abound. The gently rolling pastureland could also become tillable fields.
Attached is a charming one-bedroom apartment which has rented for $1000/month, with separate propane heat. The 7-stall, three-level barn with capacious hayloft is a beauty, and pasture run-in sheds offer additional animal space. Tucked away by one of the scenic ponds stands a rustic cottage with electricity and wood heat, which could be furnished as a studio or retreat. The two-car garage is currently used as a working art studio featuring a small office and a pellet stove for heat. It has a small greenhouse attached to one side. Across the street are nine acres, planted with 1500 blueberry bushes, and available for other crops as well.
Set on a hilltop in South Worthington, this property is just 30 minutes from Northampton and convenient to the cultural and scenic attractions of the Berkshires, and 2 and a half hours from Boston and New York. Abutting a wildlife management area, Running Fox Farm is an idyllic location in a quintessential New England town.
