Tyringham,
Berkshire County, Massachusetts
Established 1704, this is an
astounding property... an original farm with 158 non-contiguous acres.
The pristine nature of the property is guaranteed as nearly all the
acreage is permanently protected for you by both Agricultural Preservation
and Conservation use restrictions. The possibilities are staggering
including the ultimate Berkshire equine property; a complete slow food,
farm-to-table property with many acres of tillable land, and a full
commercial kitchen; an old-fashioned family farm; the only limitations are
set by your imagination.
There is an early 19th century
colonial farmhouse primed for restoration with 6 bedrooms, fireplace, porch,
and attached post and beam barn that has been incorporated into the home and
would make a stunning great room. Flanking the early farmhouse are at
least 8 barns and outbuildings.
The centerpiece is the circa 1891
massive timber-framed dairy barn with at least three floors. Below is
a full commercial kitchen, restrooms, and storage. The enormous main
barn features soaring ceilings up to the slate roof and red cupola. In
addition to the commercial possibilities, subject to town bylaws and the
granting of any applicable special permits, the towering barn may possibly
be converted into a spectacular residence to fully take in both the eastern
and western horizons all the way up and down Tyringham valley.
The barn is connected to a cow barn,
a stall barn, a wood shop, a former sap house, and a milking room.
Surrounding the barn complex are multiple smaller barns, two of which were
used as garages, and a large horse barn.
To the south, high up the valley, the
former Tyringham Shaker settlement overlooks the property precisely as it
did up until it dissolved in 1875. The center of the farm
encompasses
over 30 pastoral acres bordered by Main road towards the northern edge of
the valley and Hop Brook which establishes the property line towards the
south side of the valley. The Appalachian Trail runs alongside one
portion of the property and that land is thus also permanently protected.
Simply an astonishing property offering a
myriad of possibilities and spectacular natural beauty.
