This beautiful parcel is comprised of rolling hills, cleared fields, mature apple trees, historic stone walls, an outbuilding and brook that winds along the back of the property. At present, the property has drivable but unpaved road/driveway from W. Leyden Rd to outbuilding on the property. The current owners had land surveyed, perced for two building sites & built the sturdy, charming, light-filled outbuilding with red standing-seam metal roof, front porch and lofted second floor. They have also paid to remove debris left by previous owners, and maintained the cleared fields since their ownership. This land has enormous potential, sufficient frontage suggests the ability to establish 3 building lots (the original listing sheet stated there were three building lots). Potential for chapter 61 status to be researched by buyer/buyer's agent. Please note house across the street is also #253, but is under separate ownership
