About This Home
This 28-acre woodland retreat offers a rare blend of natural beauty and living history at the base of Mount Pisgah, the highest elevation in Hampden County. Once part of a Revolutionary War–era native road system, the land lies within an area with a rich history from the early days of New England settlement. Today, the land remains remarkably preserved, with majestic stands of pre-colonial pines and towering white oaks. Wide, well-maintained trails throughout the property lead to adjoining state and town-owned forests, with over 300 acres of trails offering exceptional opportunities for hiking, hunting, horseback riding, nature exploration, and quiet retreat. At the entrance to the property is a 19th-century rustic cabin, expanded in 1940, which adds character and historic appeal. An easy drive from Boston, Hartford
