EXCEPTIONAL INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY | Turn 5 or 4 commercially zoned buildings into a Village: Business condos, cafe, restaurant, retail, outfitters...only limited by your imagination. And what an environment.. 3.97 acres or 2.7 acres and 4 buildings for $900,000, 1830 Railroad Depot with Tobacco Processing Barn, General Store/Post Office, large Wood Shed (24 x 100), three-bay Garage, exquisite waterfall (you'll own part of it!), all bordering Roxbury Mine Hill Iron Ore Land Trust and the Shepaug River. HISTORY | Mine Hill Road splits the property in two, cutting close to the front door of a tobacco barn that was built in the 1830s, which still contains its old tobacco wheel. The commercial buildings were all constructed between 1830-1930. The rail line was completed in 1872 and promptly went bankrupt the following year. A stock market panic prompted the state to foreclose, rendering the town's stock worthless. The Shepaug Railroad subsequently changed hands, at one time becoming the Shepaug, Litchfield & Northern, which local wits renamed the "slow, late & noisy." Eventually, the rail line was merged into the New York, New Haven & Hartford system, which kept it in operation for 50 years until the last train chugged through Roxbury Station in 1948.
