The Swendsen Farm,an imposing geographic landmark in Bethlehem & important part of Bethlehem's farming history,was built by the Kasson family from Belfast, IR in 1750 & retains much of its original interior architectural detail: 5 fireplaces, extensive paneling, some antique floors, beaded & boxed beams.The original farm had over 100 acres.In recent years most of the land was sold to the town for open space & continues to be farmed.Breathtaking views from the farmhouse are over the surrounding Swendsen Preserve and to the distant hills.The property includes a 60x75' barn w/water/electricity, above-ground pool with deck,cabana,gazebo,and a pond.The land is mostly open and ideal for horses. Farm markets, fine dining, & hiking trails abound.
