Great country location for a weekend retreat or 4 season living. The home is in need of repairs and updating or build a new home/cabin. All utilities are active, roofing is metal, and there is a small barn for storage, chickens, etc. The property has long road frontage, sets up from road "high and dry" and is bordered completely on all sides by historic stone wall fencing. If your handy you would have great inexpensive homestead!
