Comment: While admittedly beautiful and equal to the title "Dream Farms", there is no way you can classify these properties as "affordable". Add in the outrageous property taxes in Vermont and it becomes even less "affordable".
Perhaps my next question should be...affordable for who? Certainly not any of the horse people I know. For them, "affordable" would not exceed $450,000.
Name: rosie Time: 2008-07-09 10:07:08
Comment: For affordable horse properties check out Walla Walla, Washington, a farming and wine country area in sunny southeastern Washington. Prices can be about $10-$15,000 an acre. Some properties even have creek or river frontage with water rights.

Comment: Think these properties are Affordable??? Unfortunately, only for a lucky few. What are the property taxes in Vermont? I heard they are on the high side.
Name: Pam Salem Time: 2008-07-04 06:07:03
Comment: Price is under picture. I had to look a while, too. I was curious to see what is deemed 'affordable' these days.
