About this home

Here is a truly special opportunity to become the next steward of historic Sentinel Farm! This beloved property has been carefully maintained and thoughtfully improved over the years while preserving the character and charm that make it so unique. The home offers an updated kitchen and baths, mini-splits, some replacement windows, some updated electrical, owned solar, convenient first-floor laundry, and the most fabulous family room/sunroom—a bright, inviting space you may never want to leave. From the moment you walk through the door, this home just feels good—warm, welcoming and charming. Outside is where this property really comes to life. The long-established orchard, planted approximately 60 years ago and lovingly tended by the current owners since 1985, features approximately 288 fruit trees with an impressive variety of apples including McIntosh, Honeycrisp, Cortland, Macoun, Empire, Northern Spy, Baldwin etc, along with many peach trees and pear trees. Outbuildings include a barn with tons of storage and a home for the resident goats and chickens, an apple building with a CoolBot system for apple storage, and a sugar shack that speaks to the property’s maple-sugaring past. Over the years the farm has also supported maple syrup production, free-range eggs, pollinator habitat, farm visits, pick-your-own, cider making and seasonal farm activities. Set on approximately 6.11 acres, with qualifying acreage remaining in Chapter 61A, the setting feels like your own little world while still being conveniently located just minutes from the center of town and everyday amenities. There are so many special spaces to enjoy, inside and out, whether you are gathering with family, tending the orchard, relaxing in the sunroom or simply taking in the beauty of the property. This is not just a house—it is a lifestyle, maybe even one you never knew you wanted. Sentinel Farm is ready for its next chapter. Schedule your showing today!
