About this home
Tucked just down the road from Unverferth Manufacturing and the New Hartford Racing Dirt-bike Track, this peaceful acreage offers a fantastic opportunity for country living with great outbuildings and room to grow. The home features 2 bedrooms on the main floor and a third in the basement, along with a full bathroom on the main floor. The house has had some updates over the years, including a solid roof and several newer windows. Step out onto the back deck and enjoy the backyard, a retreat filled with mature hardwood trees and a variety of plantings ready for a little cleanup to truly shine. The property includes a one-stall attached garage, a 864 sq ft detached garage/workshop that was previously heated, and a large 40’ x 60’ steel building with two overhead doors and a walk-in entrance, perfect for storage, hobbies, or business use. Sitting on a gravel road, the home enjoys a peaceful setting surrounded by nature, including a producing apple tree out front. With just a little maintenance and sweat equity, this acreage has all the makings of a long-term homestead, hobby farm, or rural retreat. Don't miss your chance to own a slice of the countryside with endless potential!
