Moorhead Farms

A rare opportunity one mile inland from Lake Erie and located within a microclimate proven to be perfect for growing grapes, timber and other crops, the 144 acre Moorhead Farms is for sale near Erie, Pennsylvania.

This beautiful property has two streams running through, woodlands that can be timbered every decade or so and a number of dwellings. There are four houses to generate monthly income, all located along Route 20. A lovingly cared for two story 124 year old home is the jewel of the farm. There are also 2 barns and a greenhouse. Close proximity to the lake makes it a perfect hub for beachcombing, fishing, boating and other outdoor activities.

Moorhead Farms has been owned by the same family since 1811. It is planted predominantly in vinifera wine grapes and also has several acres of Concords. Historically, past crops have included cherries, peaches, melons, blackberries, raspberries and tomatoes. Harvested wine grapes find their home in the local wineries and the Concords are contracted to a New York processor. The farm is situated between the small Pennsylvania communities of Harborcreek and North East. It is about a two hour drive from Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Cleveland, 20 minutes from Erie and 40 minutes form the famed Chautauqua Institute in Chautauqua, NY.

In an area where farms rarely come up for sale, the Moorhead family has worked the rich, fertile land for more than 200 years. The main house was built in 1900. It is a great place to raise a family with good schools, clean air and moderate temperatures. The farm includes some fun amenities: a racketball court over the former packing house, a full wine cellar in the basement and a sauna on the second floor. The large barn with its original massive beams includes an expansive workshop. With its abundant woods and farmland, the property is a perfect place to ride a 4-wheeler, go hunting,, hiking, bird watching or cross country skiing. There is room to build a winery on the property. Along with the revenue streams of farming, rentals and logging, agritourism is also an option.

This is a turnkey operation, which includes all necessary equipment (tractors, harvesters etc) to farm this land.
