Property Description
The Blueberry Fields of Rood Hill Road
There are places that exist in perfect harmony with the seasons, where autumn arrives like a master colorist painting the landscape in burnished gold and russet. These 5.9 acres along Rood Hill Road represent one such place—two pristine meadows where generations of lowbush blueberries have created their own natural tapestry, framed by colonial stone walls and held in reverent stewardship by the same family for more than half a century. This is land that knows its purpose: 2.6 acres of established blueberry fields complemented by 3.3 acres of mature woodland, creating the kind of rare rural sanctuary where simplicity reveals its own profound beauty. At $125,000, it represents an invitation to join a story that began with colonial settlers. The Arrival
The approach begins through a weathered break in the original stone wall, where colonial settlers first carved their boundaries by hand. Here, at the property's highest elevation, the full scope of what lies ahead reveals itself: 1.4 acres of open meadow stretching toward distant treelines, where native blueberry bushes create subtle patterns across the terrain like brushstrokes on canvas. The autumn light catches every texturethe amber grasses, the deep forest green of the boundary trees, the endless cathedral of sky above.
The Discovery
Beyond the first clearing, separated by a natural hedgerow and another carefully constructed stone wall, lies the hidden second field. Here, 1.2 acres of equally pristine blueberry terrain unfolda secret meadow that feels like stepping into a landscape painting. The remaining 3.3 acres flow seamlessly into mature forest, creating natural boundaries and the kind of profound solitude that transforms a simple walk into meditation.
The Rhythm of Place
Every other year, after autumn's first frost signals the end of the growing season, these fields are thoughtfully cuthonoring both agricultural tradition and the land's wild beauty. This careful practice ensures the blueberry bushes return each season more abundant than before, creating the kind of sustainable relationship with the land that spans generations. The timing is everything: the cutting happens when the fields themselves are at their most photogenic, dressed in those impossible autumn hues that seem almost too beautiful to be real.
The Legacy
This is not merely real estateit is an inheritance of place. The colonial stone walls speak to centuries of careful stewardship. The established blueberry cultivation represents knowledge passed down through generations. The twice-yearly rhythm of cutting and renewal connects this land to agricultural traditions that predate the nation itself. At $125,000 for nearly six acres, the mathematics make sense, but the true value lies in what cannot be quantified: the continuity of purpose, the established beauty, the rare opportunity to step into a story already in progress.
The Invitation
Some properties demand to be transformed. Others, like these blueberry fields, have already achieved a kind of perfectionthey know exactly what they are meant to be. There is a Swedish understanding that speaks to this: i det enkla finns det vackrain what is simple, there is beauty. It captures something essential about Sandisfield itself, a place that has never tried to be anything other than what it is.
The rough-hewn driveway provides access without disturbing the essential character. No perc tests cloud the future with complications. Sandisfield's gentle zoning bylaws govern from a distance, allowing the land to remain what it has always been.
This is an opportunity to become the next custodian of something genuinely rare: land that has found its calling and never wavered from it. To own mornings when the mist rises from these golden fields. To witness the seasonal transformation from summer's green abundance to autumn's burnished glory. To continue a conversation with the landscape that began with the first stones laid in these walls centuries ago.
