About This Property
Private Historic Compound! Built in 1805 the Morris Manor is the
centerpiece of a 177 acre estate surrounded by 10 outbuildings,
manicured lawns and impeccably maintained stonewalls. Painstakingly

craftsmanship and classic design combined with modern amenities

back to the beginning of the nineteenth century and boasts 6

ft of living space. A stunning ballroom graces the lower level,

LaFarge and an adjacent butlers pantry. Imagine what possibilities
await within the preserved stables, guest house, an expansive
greenhouse, annex building with the original bowling alley and
squash court and other terrific outbuildings. Adjacent to 1109
acres state forest and is like no other.
