FIVE TAIL FARM This 60’s era ranch is Sharon’s best kept
secret. It sits on 7+ acres but overlooks 100+ acres of Sharon
Land Trust’s biggest investment to date which allows for a
stunning long view with southern exposure. Your sunset view to
the west is protected as well. Located in the coveted Estate
Section of Sharon just across the Sharon Country Club. A long,
flat driveway gives this address unparalleled privacy. The owner
has started an interior renovation, so at present the kitchen area
has been cleared out, new windows have been installed and the
flooring in much of the main section is sub flooring. The house
has a brilliant footprint that maximizes the view. Keep it as its
current 1-story with a 10 mile vista, or make it 2-stories and look
at 20 miles of foothills. In the hands of one of the area’s blue chip
builders, you will have an heirloom estate. Two Katsura trees (aka
“the caramel tree”) frame the front of the house and are
outstanding examples of this unusual species from Japan. Its
leaves emerge in the spring with a lavender tint. In the fall they’re
apricot-colored and have the tree’s signature scent of burnt sugar.
Other trees on the property include a cherry, mulberry, apple, and
chestnut. For the hobbyist, there’s a small vineyard of organic
grapes – and a coop that has been home to chickens and geese.
Wild bee balm flowers are abundant on the property if you want to
learn beekeeping. Throughout the four seasons, it’s all about the
view. This parcel is Sharon’s version of oceanfront property, as it
overlooks a sea of hay – in the constant breeze, you see endless
waves of green in the spring, waves of gold in the fall.
