Welcome to your private 414-acre sanctuary - a rare and extraordinary property offering boundless opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts, nature lovers, and those seeking a self-sustaining lifestyle. Once containing a working gravel pit that has since been decommissioned. A hunter's dream, deer, moose, and bear have all been spotted roaming freely across the rolling terrain. Meandering trails wind through open fields, ponds, and wetlands, creating an ideal setting for exploring on foot, ATV, or snowmobile - with a private snowmobile trail right on the property. For the gardener, herbalist, or homesteader, this property is a living apothecary and orchard in one. Enjoy a remarkable array of fruit and nut trees including apple, pear, plum, chum, and plumcot, as well as elderberry, mulberry, and persimmon. Walnut, hazelnut, chestnut, and edible pine nut trees dot the landscape, alongside sugar maples for syrup tapping. The grounds overflow with medicinal, culinary, and tea herbs, complemented by an abundance of wild and cultivated mushrooms - a forager's paradise. At the heart of the property sits a beautifully modernized, light-filled 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home blending rustic charm with contemporary comfort. The inviting kitchen features oversized windows overlooking the gardens, a range and a charming wood cookstove, perfect for cozy country living. The open-concept dining and living area flows seamlessly to the back patio, ideal for entertaining or enjoying tranquil evenings under the stars. The main floor offers two comfortable bedrooms, while the lower level hosts a third bedroom, second bathroom, large storage area, and laundry room. Outside, you'll find a detached garage with carport, a garden shed, and a deck overlooking your private oasis. A long gravel driveway ensures privacy and a grand entrance. Whether you're looking for a hunting retreat, an eco-friendly homestead, or your own slice of paradise - this exceptional property delivers it all. (id:28469)
