Cass Road is named for the family that has owned this farm in the Town of Sanford for well over a century. Valmore Nahum Cass (1851-1931) was of the 4th generation of his family that came to the area from New Hampshire just after the Revolution. After his 1882 marriage to Clara Eliza Higgins, he acquired this farm just down the road from Vallonia Springs, the site of a late Victorian resort. Eventually they built the house that survives in its basically original form. Valmore passed the modest stock raising and dairy operation to his son Ray, whose twin children Roberta and Robert worked the farm until 2005. It would be a fine thing for someone to fix up the place for a few more generations to enjoy.

How did you uncover all of that history, fabulous! For under $200k you get a house and 54 acres! Wow. So much original, but the interior seems dark.

An easy one actually; just found the owners currently and on a 1908 map, and connected the dots. The old photo makes it come alive!

Jim is our resident researcher and gets thing we need ASAP.

It is a cool house for sure. Wish there were more photos. It seems like they took pictures at night or the windows were draped over or something. I felt the same. There are two types of dark interiors in my opinion. Elaborate romantic dark which is the kind I like or dark in a bad way. While I don’t mind dark styled interiors, this isn’t complimentary. That blue bedroom really bothers me and makes me feel uneasy.

Been reading some books on climate change. They seem to agree that as it gets hotter northern areas will need to produce more food. This may be just the place to do that.
