Description
The beauty of Far-A-Field Farm shines with a rich patina that has been cultivated over the last 275 years of the property's stewardship. Believed to have been built in 1750 as the original farmhouse for the Farley farm, this sophisticated property has been meticulously restored and updated by its Owners with an eye to marrying the beauty of traditional finishes with modern conveniences. Thoughtfully sited in a retreat-like setting nestled outside of the historic village of Oldwick, Far-A-Field Farm is oriented to maximize enjoyment of the striking natural beauty of the bucolic Tewksbury countryside. Anchored by a colonial-era vintage farmhouse benefitting from thoughtful expansions over the years including a detached garage with a separate workshop and second-floor office space, this unique property provides both a haven and a place of entertainment for its Owners and guests. Admiring butterflies in the gardens, relaxing by the elegant swimming pool, exploring the vintage barn, daydreaming in a Boat on the pond, or walking the perimeter of the crop fields at Far-A-Field Farm, one easily forgets how close this retreat-like home is to the bustle of New York City, a feature distinguishing it from equally-beautiful, yet less-accessible properties and making it perfect for use as either a full- or part-time residence. The property currently benefits from the low property taxes associated with farm assessment and is suitable as a hobby farm.
