Enjoy your morning coffee or evening refreshments on the screened porch that overlooks this serene pond-it's also the perfect place to sleep on those warm summer days. You'll enjoy the privacy that this property offers. Well and septic in place. Most furnishings convey along with kayaks, canoe, sunfish and small fishing boat. Only 15 minutes from downtown Farmington and a half hour from Sugarloaf. The drive here is beautiful. Why not come for a visit? Back on the market-buyer could not obtain financing.
