Property Description

After 62 years with the same family, Farm by the River is ready for its next chapter. Set along 3,040 feet on the Ossipee River, this classic New England farm of over 50 acres traces its roots to the 1930s Farm House Dairy owned by Charles H. Watts and has been stewarded by the Varrieur and Klotz families since 1964. The circa-6,000-sq-ft main house has six bedrooms, three full and two half baths, four fireplaces, and a beautifully renovated kitchen. It connects directly to post-and-beam barns dating to 1820, 1906, and 1940, a rare and distinctive layout. The barn has two horse stalls plus an additional area for a pony or three to four sheep or goats, and there is a chicken house. This home is the perfect mullet: all business in the front, party in the back, surrounded by over 1,000 acres of conservation land, trails to explore, and mountains to climb. Out front, the land is turnkey for farming, with an NRCS-designed rotational grazing system that can pasture 50 sheep and 2 to 4 horses, established paddocks, irrigation drawn from the river, a 72' x 30' high tunnel, a 72' x 20' tin barn for machinery storage, and a 55' x 22' CSA barn. A 50-year-old productive raspberry patch adds to the bounty. Out back, private trails wind through the family forest, managed with a forester, and connect to protected conservation land and a 24-acre Audubon Society easement. A 24' x 18' boathouse sits on the river, and a separate income-producing rental, the Brook House, offers built-in cash flow. Whether continued as a working farm, reimagined as a New England inn, or simply enjoyed as an extraordinary family home, Farm by the River offers privacy, productive land, and river frontage just 44 miles to Portland and 60 to Portsmouth.
