Welcome to Windover Farm! This exceptional property encompasses over 32 acres of stunning and serene natural beauty. The home and surrounding property has been meticulously and lovingly restored by the current owners with great consideration given to its more than century-old history. The 6 bedroom, 4.5 bath home is surrounded by 8 fenced fields and 10+ acres of woodlands with walking trails and 120 tapped sugar maple trees from which maple syrup can be made in the working sugar shack. The tiled silo sits next to a 4-story bank barn brilliantly situated within the landscape to provide ground level access to all 4 levels including the main level with three horse stalls. A former milking barn houses a 1400 square foot heated and cooled studio. Solar panels provide for all electricity needs. The house is beautifully appointed throughout, with the main level featuring a living room with a fireplace and a spacious chef’s kitchen with inset cabinetry and honed granite counters. A powered, retractable staircase off the kitchen leads to the cozy and charming guest suite. The upper level houses the primary suite with balcony, two more bedrooms, a full hall bath, and a fantastic room with a beamed, vaulted ceiling that can serve as a family room, game room or spacious home office. The finished third level offers two more bedrooms and a full bath. A unique and special opportunity to be the next owner of this one-of-a-kind, peaceful and quiet property! The current owner has sheep and a fiber processing business in the studio. Other potential opportunities here are any livestock farming, a commercial horse property, arable/produce farming, or a vineyard /winery! As for hosting special events, you can host 15 events a year by invitation only with a limit of 150 guests. Up to 2 events per weekend, and events can take place Sunday through Thursday until 9pm and on Friday and Saturday till 10pm. An event structure could be built with a limit of 5000 square feet. The solar panels on the Bank Barn are for the main house. The solar panels on the Dairy Barn are for the studio, and fields, so a secondary business can be run off of that panel. Solar panels are paid for in full, and provide all electricity needs along with heating and cooling.
