Introducing the Fink Farm Estate—a 10+ acre historic compound in Lower Mount Bethel Township, Northampton County, anchored by a late-18th century stone farmhouse. For more than five decades, this property was home to photographer Larry Fink (1941–2019), internationally recognized for his documentary work and masterful use of light and shadow. Fink’s career spanned museum exhibitions at institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum, as well as a teaching legacy at Bard College. His publications—including Social Graces and The Vanities: Hollywood Parties 2000–2009—earned widespread acclaim, while his honors included a Guggenheim Fellowship and two National Endowment for the Arts fellowships. During his time here, Fink first lived with painter Joan Snyder, whose canvases helped redefine American abstraction, and later with sculptor Martha Posner, whose works are exhibited in collections across the country. Together, they cultivated the property into a creative and agricultural sanctuary where art and rural life intertwined. The main farmhouse offers four bedrooms and three baths (two full, one half) with stone walls, exposed beams, wide-plank floors, and updated kitchen and baths. Living areas include a stone fireplace and bedroom wood stove, while modern systems such as a Navien furnace, mini-splits, and water filtration provide comfort and efficiency. Complementing the residence are numerous outbuildings: a Pennsylvania bank barn with a former studio/darkroom, a rustic cabin with loft and greenhouse-style bath, a caretaker’s cottage with vaulted ceilings, and a studio cottage. Additional features include a woodland sauna, koi pond with waterfall, chicken coop, greenhouse, stone sheds, and lean-to storage. The grounds blend open meadows with wooded trails leading to Little Martins Creek, quartz outcroppings, fenced paddocks, and raised garden beds. Enrolled in Pennsylvania’s Clean & Green program, the property benefits from reduced taxes while preserving its agricultural use. Ideally located—just 90 minutes to New York City and under two hours to Philadelphia—the Fink Farm Estate represents both a historic homestead and a cultural landmark, uniquely connected to one of America’s most celebrated photographers.
