The long-distance views are exceptional. The adorable c.1800 cottage-style log home is accompanied by a detached office, 19th century bank barn, equipment shed and milk house. The property provides the opportunity to lead a charmed country lifestyle, as well as offering long-term investment potential. Though in Act 319 currently, developers will be attracted to the 1-acre minimum zoning, perhaps for an upscale country subdivision. The equestrian will recognize the potential to create a large-scale horse farm with stables, paddocks, riding trails through the woods, and arenas, in close proximity to NE horse shows; the existing house would be ideal for housing a resident trainer. Perfect as a weekend oasis, or create a family compound, siting a substantial main house further back on the land to take advantage of the phenomenal views of mountains and wildlife. Bushkill Township has offered to conserve the land which could be the tidy sum needed to make the property right for you! Desired Nazareth Area School District. Arrive in Philadelphia or NYC in under 2 hours. Come for a weekend, stay for a lifetime!
