This 133 acre mostly wooded lot has been conservatively managed through USDA programs. Excellent access and frontage off of Route 161 and a well-made road that spans the length of the property. The parcel is enrolled in tree-growth with a 3 acre building lot excluded for future building. Key features include a field with frontage on 161 for home building potential, a vast 15 acre apple orchard, a 10-15 acre old growth untouched hardwood stand for future sugaring or veneer/sawlog investment, and a 10 acre old growth spruce stand, several red oak trees, and about 10 acres of mowed open field leading into the orchard. The mixed-wood areas were very conservatively thinned over a decade ago and thousands of white spruce plantings have occurred as part of USDA initiatives since. This is an absolute prime hunting property with many deer traversing the apple orchard and wintering in the dense softwoods at the far end of the property. This is a very rare opportunity to purchase a premium lot with so much potential in low-tax New Sweden.
