Lemonville is a historic property with a rich farming heritage dating back to 1870. Acquired in 1981, this farm has evolved from a goat milk and cheese production site, before being purchased by Audrey, who moved her horses into the barn. The transformation began in 2010 when the horses left, paving the way for a vibrant vegetable garden and a solar production on the barn roof. The growing of organic produce transformed into an urban farmer group and the barn was updated to passive house standards. The barn's versatile open concept space can be used by the residents for indoor winter growing, small group gatherings and educational purposes.


Perfect for eco-conscious buyers and those keen to pursue an "off-grid" lifestyle, this property offers fertile gardens, solar powered amenities and a thriving local food hub. Embrace a lifestyle of health, sustainability, and community in this rare co-ownership opportunity.
