Nestled along the serene shore of the Back River, this expansive property offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of waterfront paradise with the potential for further development. With breathtaking views and a tranquil setting, this property is a haven for those seeking a retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life.
The residence is a well-built two story building with a spacious layout designed for a multitude of potential uses. Currently featuring 1 bedroom and 1 1/2 bathrooms, this home offers ample space for comfortable living and entertaining. Highlights include a zero step entry with an open layout first level with slab radiant heating initially designed for the storage of the original owner's car collection. Turn this large area into whatever you envision - with many windows and exceptionally high ceilings, this could easily become your main living level, with plumbing and 1/2 bath already in place. The second level features lovely pine flooring, a well-equipped kitchen, full bath with laundry, large open living area with wood stove and a large bedroom with walk in closet.
The outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with a gentle slope leading down to 400'+ of private water frontage with easy access for boating and water activities.
In addition to the existing residence, this property includes ample space for further development. With almost 8 acres of land, there is potential to build another house on the already cleared water front envelope and/or expand the existing residence to create a truly one-of-a-kind waterfront estate. Septic in place for second dwelling.
The property boasts abundant wildlife sightings, ranging from fishers, foxes, minks, and porcupines to owls, eagles and ospreys. Enjoy hiking at any of the four nearby nature preserves, where even a moose was spotted!
