As an old farm, you will sense the hard work of long ago and the tremendous potential for its future. The upper pasture is grazed (rented to neighbor farmer until Nov 2022.) In June 2022, the owner hired local excavator to improve and gravel some of the existing roads, creating excellent access. Recent brush-hogging and clearing of the lower pastures expanded the visibility and access to the lower section of the property. Additional Information: The cute gambrel-roofed cabin, built in 1990, has a sunny mudroom, bath, and a great room/kitchen with pine plank floors downstairs. The upstairs loft space is divided into 2 bedrooms. It is clean and weather-tight, but does need work. It is ducted for central heat/air, to work with a heat pump; it has two propane heaters installed, to work with a propane tank.
