This amazing 5.2 +/- ac tract is a generous cutout from a former Dairy Farm and is now a beautiful mix of meadows and woods with a winding creek running along the back border. This quiet and peaceful setting is located right in the middle of Newton County's picturesque countryside and equestrian area. A recent survey shows approximately 269' of frontage which could possibly qualify to subdivide into two lots. Farm animals are welcome in this Agricultural/ Residential zoning. A historic Farmhouse stands prominently to the right side of the lot and is ready to be renovated or demolished to make way for an incredible home site. The 3BR/1 bath farmhouse has endless possibilities for remodeling and offers large rooms and 12+ ceiling heights. Within the last ten years, the roof, HVAC and maintenance free siding have all been replaced. The front porch is ready for your rocking chairs and a relaxing swing. A separate concrete block building that served as an office would make a great chicken house or guest apartment (plumbing and electricity available). Very convenient location near Covington and Conyers and great school districts, including Newton County Charter School. This house needs extensive interior remodeling and will not qualify for a loan. It is a cash only sale and "as is"! No septic or sewer on property. Come to the country and enjoy the Farm life!!
