Discover the timeless beauty and unmatched privacy of Argobrite Farm, a rare 538-acre property nestled in the rolling hills of Monroe County. This extraordinary tract offers a harmonious blend of open pastureland, woodland, and natural wonder, including 2 caves waiting to be explored. Panoramic and mountain views, meadows, creeks & tranquil forests, Argobrite Farm is a true haven for those seeking peace, space, and a connection to nature. Whether you dream of a working farm, private retreat, hunting preserve, or legacy homestead, this land offers limitless potential. Remote yet accessible, the property provides endless opportunities! Contingencies with due diligence period. Back up contracts welcome. Off-the-grid living would be ideal here. The home was designed with the dramatic western view in mind, but it also features a large expanse of a south-facing roof perfect for installing solar panels. Household water is already supplied via a cistern, further supporting a self-sufficient lifestyle.

The house was built between 1977 and 1978, with many components handcrafted by the owner. The fireplace in the large Great Room is native stone. The wainscoting and bookcases are made from walnut harvested from large trees felled by an ice storm. The spiral staircase was constructed from wide oak boards from a 150-year-old barn, and the metal parts were hand forged by the owner. The beautiful doors came from his
grandfather's historic home in Saginaw.

Historic farm dating back to the mid-1800s.

More than half of the land is wooded. Timber was selectively harvested about 30 years ago. Some of the land was also leased for a few years for mineral/oil rights.

Ample pasture and hay acreage have been leased in recent years. A spring-fed pond is in the valley meadow. Broad Run meanders through the property.

Two caves are on the property; both have been mapped. Argobrite Cave is the larger of the two and was named back in the day by a Preacher Argobrite who traveled by horseback. An old moonshine still was found in the cave in the 1970s.

Indian arrowheads and other artifacts have been found on the property. An old mill site is near the cave, as well as the remains of the Lady Hall School and another building foundation.

The steel building with power and lighting was used as a woodworking shop. The equipment shed was built in the '70s from old oak lumber from a barn.

The raised beds and a small greenhouse make gardening a pleasure.

There are abundant deer and other wildlife for hunting.
