Make Your Dream Homestead here
#1191 Northeast Otsego County
Make it the homestead of your dreams. This 5.43 are piece has a private feel to it and enjoys a park-like setting with varied terrain coupled with an attractive mixture of tillable, wooded and pasture land. It is perimeter fenced with page (box) wire. There are cherry, sugar maple, oak, hickory and apple trees. From the land, there are some long views and you have both Amish and non-Amish families farming in the immediate area.
There is a like-new hip roof barn/shop, 24x40, with an 11 shed attached. The larger part, the front, is paved and used as a shop. It has a large overhead door and is both heated and insulated. In the back is ample space for small animals, 3 box stalls with 2 large sliding doors. The loft is walk-up and is over the entire building. Boy, would I like to have something like this of my own.
In addition to the barn is a welding shed and ...
In addition to the barn is a welding shed and a water house which houses a 1500g tank that collects water from the barn roof so there is a supply of naturally soft water with no minerals, ideal for specialty plants. And there is a modest-sized greenhouse to grow those plants. Also, if you like to negotiate, are 4 hoop houses. The owner expects to take them with him, but if you are persuasive.
I have not mentioned housing. Why? There is nothing habitable at the moment. But you do have a clean 26x40 poured cement foundation with a 10x12 addition, good walls and floor and beams to support a modular or stick-built home. And there is a doublewide, 23x40 with an attached 8x14 porch and shed. This has been stripped to the studs so it could be remodeled. A 96 drilled well feeds the barn and both home sites. The sites are served by a single septic system which was set up to handle two homes.
One of the owners is a real estate agent in another area. They bought this a few years back as a project, as it needed lots of cleanup back then. That has mostly been accomplished and they will continue on that project as time permits or until it is either completed or sold. Taxes are cheap, around $1800, and so is the price, just $77700. Offers, anyone?
