PRICE REDUCED $20,000! Large diverse woodlot with approx. 75' of road frontage on Route 2/Canaan Road and approx. 1,800' of frontage on Meadow Brook. This stream is associated with approx. 7.5 acres of wooded wetlands that are critical habitat for a myriad of wildlife species that depend on wetland for food, shelter and/or breeding habitat. The lot was recently harvested in 2023 creating a rough trail system to access the lot. Also, the new growth that will become established will create new vegetation such as twigs and young shoots to be eaten by animals. It is not certain at the time of this write up if the local snowmobile club (Pittsfield Driftbusters) still maintains the snowmobile along the powerline that crosses the subject property. The property is close by the towns of Pittsfield and Newport. Taxes are approximately $925. There is an old, abandoned shell of a structure that the seller has no knowledge of. It is unsafe to enter.
