14 Forge Lane

BLACKSTONE BARN is set in the heart of Lime Rocks most historic area, where the Barnum and Richardson iron foundry was located. Many of the original buildings remain, the Ice House, the Forge and Blackstone Barn have all been turned into unique homes located off a small, private lane. The barn was moved back a bit to its current location in the 1960’s and at that time converted to the dramatic, yet charming home you see now. Set on a lovely 1.25 acres with beautiful gardens and plantings, there is a level, usable lawn, both in front and back. Enter into the great room with its high ceiling, exposed hand hewn beams and large wood-burning fireplace. At one end of the expansive room is a dining area with large windows. The kitchen offers a breakfast nook and plenty of storage. A full bath, den and laundry room complete the downstairs. Upstairs are 3 inviting bedrooms with skylights, wonderful detail and a full bath. The generous screened porch is perfect for relaxing on a summer day or dinners in the evening. Lime Rock is a hamlet of Salisbury, CT and very close to the borders of NY and MA. Blackstone Barn is equidistant, about 5 miles, from the village of Salisbury and Sharon and only 25 minutes from the Wassaic stop on Metro North railroad.
