Blackberry River Oasis! The Stirling Farm is a rare find with 1100 feet on Blackberry River, it is surrounded by thousands of acres of protected State Land. The magic begins as you cross a small bridge with views of the historic Beckley Furnace and gushing spillway. Then down a discreet driveway the dappled woods opens to a well appointed farmhouse in a sun splashed meadow on the south bank. This charming 1890's farmhouse has 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths in 1518 sq. ft. The renovated Kitchen features stainless appliances and a 6 burner gas stove. The fir flooring has 130 years of patina and is still in great condition. The native stone fireplace with a raised hearth anchors the spacious Living Room. And the Master Bedroom is on the main level offering a large dressing room with full bank of closets. The full bathroom and laundry are also on the main floor. There is a small nursery/office and a larger bedroom plus a half bathroom on the second floor. Storage galore is available tucked in the two alcove closet and basement that also houses modern mechanicals. Though historic, this home has numerous modern upgrades like a central vacuum system, pre-wired generator hook up, new windows, 10 year old well, and roof. Just minutes to Norfolk and downtown North Canaan. The Berkshires with skiing, shopping in Great Barrington, the Red Lion Inn & Rockwell Museum are all within an easy drive too. Or just stay at home, relax and watch the river drift.
