About This c.1782 Farmhouse For Sale “Gateway Farms” w/ Barns, Outbuildings, 135 Acres
Welcome to Gateway Farms, circa 1782. This farm in the Town of Norwich, NY offers some very special, unique features. From the cascading waterfalls on White Store Creek to the ponds and the gorgeous long distance valley views, this property is a sight to behold! With the main part of the home circa 1782, this property is like walking through colonial history.
The ponds in the front yard with the driveway passing through the middle gives those who visit an amazing feeling. The home and barns are set back off the road several hundred feet making it picture perfect for a postcard. The property has all the modern touches and newer additions blended to offer a cozy, warm atmosphere. With the woodwork and flooring, the fireplaces and windows you will be amazed at this space.
There are a total of 5 bedrooms, 3 full and 1 half bathroom. On the first floor there is a large living room next to an office space, the master bedroom and bath then our favorite room, the kitchen/family room.

The barns and outbuildings are well-maintained and provide unlimited storage potential.

The natural sights on the property will amaze you. First, the waterfalls on White Store Creek, then the ponds and lastly the view across the fields.

The woods have been selectively cut over the years and appear to be well-managed making it excellent habitat for deer and turkey. The owner is downsizing after owning and enjoying the property for over 20 years. This truly is a one-of-kind property ready for someone else to use and enjoy as a family farm, country get-away or perhaps a corporate retreat. Additional acreage is available. Please call for details.
