Your blank canvas - with a head start A rare opportunity to build the home you've been picturing on a 1.84-acre lot in Cheshire. The existing structure will be removed prior to closing - or within 60 days of closing at the latest - leaving you a cleared, ready-to-build site with the foundation remaining in place. That foundation is the difference-maker. Pouring a new foundation is one of the most expensive and time-consuming early phases of any new build. Here, that groundwork is already done, which can meaningfully cut cost and shave weeks off your construction timeline. Bring your own plans and builder, or design around the existing footprint. Why this lot Foundation already in place - a substantial cost and schedule advantage over a raw lot Building to be removed - the site will be cleared, so you start with a clean slate above grade Private well and septic - no dependency on municipal water/sewer hookups R-80 zoning - single-family residential 1.84 acres of space to design around
