SunRaven is a one-of-a-kind country farm. Initially built in 1929 as a Carriage House and Barn, it was converted to a residence by local resident Barbara "Moppet" Reed, an internationally recognized wildlife photographer. Housing approximately 3300 square feet of living space, nine main rooms occupy two levels. Interior spaces are brimming with period and reclaimed materials, creating an intriguing blend of old and new. High ceilings with exposed beams lend character throughout. Nestled in the desirable Guard Hill estate area and on the Bedford Riding Lanes, SunRaven is a spectacular offering. Comprised of four acres, the property is the quintessential mini-farm. A berry bramble, grapes, and fruit trees surround a large organic vegetable garden with raised beds. Both apiaries and aviaries provide homes for bees and peafowl. A large chicken coop houses a flock of twenty, while the barn and paddock are home to two horses and a llama.
