area framed by trees, while the balance of the property gently slopes into a forested setting with a seasonal creek, creating excellent privacy and a peaceful natural backdrop. With road frontage on two sides, the parcel offers flexible access and layout options. A standout feature is the impressive detached garage: fully insulated, serviced with 220 power, underground wiring from the 10×10 pump house, Full bath and rough-in plumbing for a future kitchen. While already a great workshop with some finishing, this space could serve a variety of uses from studio to additional living area or secure storage. An older mobile home remains on the property and is included in the sale, offering a practical place to stay while you plan and build. The drilled well (1994) was originally logged at approximately 12 gallons per minute, and a septic field is already in place. Located just down the road from the local cidery and surrounded by outdoor recreation, this property is ideal for those seeking a quieter pace and a connection to nature, without being far from city amenities. A unique opportunity to secure a well-located acreage with valuable infrastructure already established. Bring your ideas and explore the possibilities. (id:62650)
