Nestled along a quiet, lightly traveled town-maintained gravel road, this c1850 colonial sits on 6 plus acres of serene land, enjoying protected land and no nearby neighbors. The property includes two prime, tillable meadows ideal for animals, plus a three-car detached garage that’s perfect for use as a workshop during the restoration. The house boasts an impressive hand-hewn timber frame and many original details, including wide plank flooring, moldings, doors, and hardware. Updates include some rewiring and oil hot air heat. The home has an older septic system and a spring water supply. This property is priced for those ready to embrace a renovation project, offering strong bones, a prime location, beautiful setting, and quality acreage. Conveniently located just 15 minutes from the Dorset/Manchester area, it’s also served by Mettawee School for pre-k through 6th grade, school choice for grades 7-12, and fiber optic internet access.
