A rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind piece of history, this 104-acre listing offers privacy, natural beauty, recreation, and a story unlike any other. For generations, this land was a place where people gathered, connected, and created memories. Music lovers may remember it as the former home of Stone Soup, a gathering place for music and community, followed by folk and bluegrass festivals, including the Second Sunrise Festival, and later Camp Bisco, featuring The Disco Biscuits. While nature has reclaimed much of the former festival grounds, the spirit of that era lives on through remnants of the original stage area and barn that once served as the backdrop for music and celebration. Today, the property includes three separate parcels. The main parcel features a secluded 3-bedroom, 1-bath home perched atop the hill, offering privacy, peaceful surroundings, and beautiful views. The home includes a pellet stove for added comfort and has previously been used as a rental, providing income potential. The land is a nature lover's paradise with one pond, established fruit trees, berry bushes, and mature maple trees once tapped for syrup production. Whether you're seeking a private retreat, homestead, hunting property, gardens, or a recreational getaway, the possibilities are endless. An existing natural gas well previously produced gas and generated royalty income, and gas rights convey with the sale. The private road to the hilltop is maintained year-round, including snow plowing, providing access in every season. Whether you're searching for a property rich in history, a private escape surrounded by nature, or a place to create something entirely your own, this remarkable offering is ready for its next chapter. Appointments are required. No trespassing. The property is monitored with trail cameras, and all buyers must be accompanied by their licensed real estate agent for all showings.
