Cleremont is comprised of three contiguous farms Cleremont (410+/- acres), Bellefields (422+/- acres), and Ross (679 acres) assembled over the past sixty years under the current ownership. The assemblage is the culmination of remarkable foresight, with each farm contributing different elements of mountains, open pasture, and hardwood forest. The result is an unusually complete offering that neatly balances an income producing cattle operation with extensive recreational opportunities. The versatility of the land and meticulous management have laid the groundwork for future owners, whether they choose to enjoy the farm in its current exceptional form or implement a new vision of their own.
