Just minutes from the city yet worlds away in atmosphere, this property blends convenience with the serenity of a private retreat. This well cared for home is being sold as-is due to its need for a new roof and non-compliant septic. The opportunity to select the style of roof, and size of septic much depends on the vision for the future. Whether you envision a thoughtful remodel, a dramatic re-imagining, or a brand-new estate rising from this extraordinary acreage, the land itself is the true luxury.
