One hundred feet of waterfront on Higley Flow? Yes, please! This sloped quarter-acre lot, just off the end of the town road, is easily accessible and full of possibilities. Many trees have been cleared from the lot, and partway down, there is a flat spot with a stone fireplace and pump house to bring water from the river up to the camper. The current owner brought power to the lot and leveled the roadside area to create a spot for the camper (included in the sale) and two parking spaces. The railed pathway and stairs would take a weekend cleanup to be passable. Along with the camper, the sale would include the storage buildings, a 14' fishing boat with a 7 1/2 HP outboard motor, 2 kayaks, and a Suzuki moped. Call today for an appointment.
