Wilsondale Farm is a rare historic estate that feels settled and significant the moment you arrive. Built in 1815, this antique farmhouse blends authentic history with modern living on 10 private acres minutes from restaurants, shopping, 25 minutes from Boston, within close reach of three rail lines, including Amtrak—ideal for commuters. An additional 6-acre ANR lot overlooking a private pond is also available. Craftsmanship defines the home - antique lighting, a blend of Carlisle and original wood floors, post-and-beam addition built using traditional peg construction, and custom Dynamic Windows system enhances natural light and creates a seamless indoor-outdoor connection.The chef’s kitchen centers around a hammered zinc island with high-end appliances with windows that open to the grounds. Thoughtfully designed living spaces—including a beam-lined dining room, sunlit living room with fireplace, library, and enclosed porches—offer both gathering and retreat. A rare find!
