Farm parcels of this size are rare to the marketplace, and this one is in the National Register of Historic Places! Comprised of a large farmhouse with attached shed/barn, massive barn that housed 200+ dairy cows when in full operation, and more than 100 acres of pasture spanning two sides of the road with extensive frontage on the Mad River. The dairy production ceased several years ago, but it had been a working dairy farm for generations. The farmhouse has all of the the charm that comes with an 1800s homestead, and includes a two-bedroom accessory apartment. The main barn has tons of potential for a variety of uses, but is in need of some structural reinforcement. A large portion of the agricultural fields are currently leased to a neighboring farmer, but could easily be reclaimed for future farming or livestock purposes. A wonderful opportunity for an aspiring farmer to bring this historic farm back to life.

Productive lowland farm fields with a house just above the flood plain. Traffic counts and highway visibility that is difficult to get, yet it's set back enough to be private. Electrical Power is free and it's in the deed, over the life of a 30 year mortgage this could exceed $300,000 in electricity alone, plug in your electric car and never make a utility payment in your life. The ultimate homesteading experience. If you like there could be B&B opportunities though ABNB making this property and farm stand provide 3 source of "income", farm crops, free electrical and guests to pay the mortgage. Wonderful business or homestead opportunity.

Farmhouse type ranch on level lot surrounded by farmland with easy access to Montpelier, Middlesex, and I89. Oversized 2 car attached garage/barn, great garden space, fireplace in LR, very nice woodwork, 3 season sun room, full sun and perfect spot for solar. Look out back over corn fields and views across the river and valley beyond. Detached barn/run-in shed needs a bit of work but would make a great spot for animals or shop space. This place could use some TLC/updating but is perfectly livable, in the U32 school district, and would be a great property to put some sweat equity into. House has the feeling of an old farmhouse but with modern wiring, plumbing, etc. Great exposure for home business. House is being sold as-is. Come check out this affordable home in Middlesex.
