26 Herman Savage Rd

Located on 34 acres of fields and forests with amazing water features, this home and its land are privately situated on a town maintained, dead end road at the base of the Pilot Range of the Kilkenny National Forest. It includes a private pond, a powerful brook, a lovely 9 room, 4 to 5 bedroom farmhouse fully refurbished for beauty, efficiency, warmth and ample space for work and play. There are beautiful views of mountains, open farm and forest land, and the natural basin surrounded by the National Forest with trails and endless recreation. Cummings Brook powers your own hydroelectric generation plant with net metering, annual payments for excess generation (if living on site, one could easily average over 5000 KWH per month, and as high as 8500), and a fascinating, self-powered cider press with an apple orchard to feed it. A whole house automatic, propane generator adds even more security. There is a barn for vehicles, equipment, wood storage and animals as desired. The quiet and inviting 4 to 5 bedroom farmhouse is both quaint and formal with country kitchen, living and family rooms, a large screen porch to join the inside with the outside year round, whether for sleep or study. It has a full basement, intricate and supplemental water systems for fire protection and other ancillary needs. This is a property where one can be independent and self-sufficient in every respect, including rich soils to produce bountiful vegetable and raspberry gardens, and beautiful landscapes. The return on investment will be proven here daily from morning to night, for you and your entire family. Offered at $925,000.
