Meander down to the stunning gunite pool with its post-and-beam cabana with kitchenette, bath, built in grill station, and outdoor shower. Continue on mowed paths to the lily pad-covered pond. 4 rustic cabins with built-in bunks provide a magical "glamping" experience around a stone firepit overlooking the pond. Walk to the Bantam River for fishing. Bantam Lake is just a short drive away for boating and beach access. This rare offering combines the charm of a classic country estate with the comfort and scale of a modern home. Potential for equestrian use with an antique barn on site.
