How big is the land that goes with that 'farmhouse'?


Not much anymore ... 2 acres.

Back when it was built (in 1800) is was the "Farmhouse" for a fairly large
cattle farm, believe it or not.
Probably 100 acres or more. Over the years sections were sold off, some to
private parties, some to the town until 1996 when it consisted of about 20
acres. A developer bought the house and remaining land and broke it up into
three lots. The house we live in is on one of them (up behind the old
Farmhouse). Another house was built on another lot and the Farmhouse land
was reduced to 2 acres. There are still about 5 acres of undeveloped land
across the street from the house that was originally part of the farmland.
