Topmost Farm is for sale! This property has a rich history, dating back to 1749 when the house was originally built. In 1968 it was relocated to its current location. It has played host to numerous festivals and weddings, drawing thousands of people to this iconic location just below the crest of the highest point in Coventry. It has operated as a horse farm, an herb farm and most recently provided heirloom tomato plants for backyard gardeners. The property is a perfect blend of 10 acres of field and 10 acres of forest, providing ample hardwood to feed the dual-burning wood and oil furnace as well as pastures for animals to roam. It also boasts a Country Carpenter's post and beam 26' x 30' barn, pond, 16' x 96' heated greenhouse and multiple display gardens. Many features of the home have been updated, including: new siding, new paint, new hot water heater, new Bosch dishwasher, new plumbing in the basement, new roof on the barn and new plastic on the greenhouse. The septic tank was cleaned out and the perimeter drain rebuilt in 2023. All duct work was vacuumed and the furnace was tuned in 2024. The well is robust and produces 15 gallons of water per minute. This estate is favorably zoned and will save you thousands in property taxes each year. Deer and wild turkeys frequently roam the grounds. The views are breathtaking and this property is well-poised for someone to turn it into their dream property.
