"A leader in introducing new dairy techniques to Dartmouth, the Gulf Hill Dairy Farm dates started 1896 with a herd of about 50 cows and brought milk into New Bedford by horse-drawn wagons, according to the Massachusetts Historical Commission. Gulf Hill continued as a leader in the area's dairy industry through World War II and beyond, when the industry became more industrialized."
"Upon entering, a grand foyer features a wide staircase that leads up to the second-floor living space, which offers views all the way up to the third floor. At the top of the stairs, you enter the main living space, which combines the living room, kitchen, and dining areas through an open floor plan that's helmed by a massive double-sided stone fireplace over Brazilian cherry floors. "I think it's the largest fireplace I've ever seen," said Team MCM of Gibson Sotheby's International Realty,"
Gulf Hill Dairy Farm began in 1896 with about 50 cows and delivered milk to New Bedford by horse-drawn wagons. Gulf Hill remained a local dairy leader through World War II and into the era of industrialized dairy. 1 Masthead Lane served as the main barn and was converted into a private residence in the late 1990s or early 2000s, with a full renovation completed in 2017 and silos rebuilt from repoured foundations. The property sits on 1.84 acres with a U-shaped gravel driveway, 7,891 square feet, four bedrooms, six bathrooms, and a $1,995,000 listing price. Interior highlights include a grand foyer and staircase, an open living plan centered on a massive double-sided stone fireplace over Brazilian cherry floors, exposed beams, American clay finishes, and silos adapted as a cozy breakfast nook.
