The Eastman Farm is an exquisite 300± acre property set amongst rolling fields, well-appointed stone walls and artistic gardens, all contributing to one of the finest Gentlemen's Farms in New England. The Farmhouse was originally built in the late 1850's and has been completely restored to the highest standard. The interior first floor utilizes an open floor plan connecting the kitchen, dining and family room areas to a sunroom and a substantial south facing patio. Additionally, there are two bedrooms, two baths and hardwood floors throughout. The original post and beam barn from the 1790's is in remarkable shape and a new second barn was built just six years ago offering tremendous functionality as it can provide additional living space or a home office. It also includes a large two-story workshop with radiant heat through the main floor and has its own septic field. This expansive property offers 60± acres of open pastures that are hayed each year, 25± acres of wetlands including two beautiful ponds and over 200± acres of mixed forest. The wooded acreage is enrolled in Maine Tree Farm programs and has been lightly harvested over the years. The property also has some extremely rare peach and apple trees, most notably the Danvers Winter Sweet.
