The existing antique home, while requiring reconstruction, has the potential to be reimagined as a charming guest house, preserving a tangible link to the past. Set on 12.7-acres this property and boasts breathtaking eastern views and the unique opportunity to create a stunning estate on land steeped in local heritage. A partially intact stone foundation (approximately 1500 sq ft) provides a solid base for this endeavor. Imagine building your dream home atop the hill, capitalizing on the panoramic vistas. A beautifully renovated barn, listed as historic landmark, adds further character and value. The property abuts Land Trust land, ensuring privacy and natural beauty. Infrastructure is in place with a completed A-2 survey, installed driveway, and approved septic plans (3-bedroom for the antique home and 8-bedroom for a main residence). Electrical conduit is also installed to the proposed homesite. This land has subdivision potential and is ready for you to create a legacy of your own. Note: Home is uninhabitable at this time. A full rebuild and renovation is required.
