Introducing: Clara.The meandering river road sets the stage for this stunning vintage country farmhouse.The drive to the house is almost as special as the house itself, the epitome of country living, the gravel road is speckled with daffodils, lovely farmhouses, views of the river and hills peeking out from the other side of the Housatonic. Once the main residence of the grand Longmeadow Farm, now her own 10 acre sanctuary. This home is ready for the antique lover who is seeking that special, once in a lifetime home, that can bring her back to her glory. The porch pulls you into the house, both wide & spacious.
