Shelburne Falls, Buckland Real Estate & Homes For Sale

"Shelburne is nestled against the river on the long and winding road that is the famous Mohawk Trail, located at exit 26 off the 91 Corridor. You're five minutes off the highway roaring up Route 2 West and you already feel you've entered "The Shire", and Gandolf will be driving by with his horse and cart any minute. Lush farmland and breathtaking views, passing farm stores and old Maple syrup landmark stops, a quick turn on the right brings you into the charming village of Shelburne Falls. At first, a classic New England Village, complete with original soda fountain pharmacy, church bells,nice 'shnick-shnack' stores and even an old school bowling alley.All of this within the roar of the tremendous falls. Cream puffs and coffee, the click click of interested tourists and location scouts, you can walk around nicely; no need for the car. Everything is easy and to hand. There are lovely lanes going up the hill,and there lie many cute cottages and houses, a remnant to the earlier age of industry here. Shelburne Falls has become quite an artisan community, there are great neighbors, writers, musicians, authors painters and potters all live harmoniously and without intrusion.There's great food for every budget,from the finest french bistro to vegan and organic fair.A great place to live."
