138 Mount Hope Rd, Mansfield Center, CT 06250

Description

A unique opportunity to own a piece of historic Mount Hope Farm! This property has been in the same family since 1927, once part of a substantial farm encompassing approximately 180 acres. Today, the 3.68-acre setting offers a character-filled antique farmhouse surrounded by mature trees, open lawn, wonderful gardening areas and a meandering brook. Enjoy meadow and farm views across Mount Hope Road from the rocking-chair wraparound porch, or walk across nearby Warrenville Road/Route 89 to the Mount Hope River for fishing and swimming. For buyers dreaming of a hobby farm or homestead, Mansfield zoning permits livestock and poultry subject to Town requirements, creating possibilities for horses, goats, chickens and more. The farmhouse has great bones and original character, with a newer roof and hot water heater, attached woodshed and one-car garage under with easy basement access. Repairs and improvements are needed, but many of the larger anticipated projects have already been investigated and/or priced. A large garage/barn offers additional utility but requires substantial work. Offered as-is; buyers to perform their own inspections and due diligence. A special opportunity to bring a longtime Mansfield farmstead into its next chapter.
