There...This large undeveloped parcel with sweeping views offers a singular building site opportunity! Both deciduous and evergreen trees populate the property. Wild raspberries, strawberries and blueberries dot the land in open areas. There are views to the east of Crotched Mountain, and Pack and North Pack Monadnock to the southeast. Rising in elevation ranging from 650 feet to 810 feet, it includes a stream in the far eastern edge fed by a nearby beaver pond that empties into the Contoocook River. There are a few areas of wetlands and vernal pools, as well as a small frog pond. The property was logged in 2018, creating transition zones. Observed are bear, moose, deer, weasel, bobcat, coyote, fox, porcupine, raccoon, fisher, turtles, bullfrogs, wood frogs, spring peepers, American toad and several species of newts and salamanders. Over 55 species of bird life have been catalogued, notably broad-winged hawk, barred owl, Eastern kingbird, chestnut sided warbler, goldfinch, Easter bluebird, Baltimore oriole, golden-crowned kinglet and indigo bunting, as well as loon and great blue heron due to proximity to the Contoocook River. Miles of logging trails allow for hiking, running, cross country skiing and snowshoeing. Approximately ¼ mile from the entrance to the property is an accessible public boat launch to Power Mill Pond Wildlife Management Area with rail trail access to Harris Center’s Elmwood Junction property. Available with abutting home for $900,000 (see MLS 4947589 )
