This is a short sale and requires lender approval of all offers: there is a house located on this property but in extreme disrepair: the price is for the LOT. lender makes no representation of any information on the property disclosure or condition of the property. Seller has not lived in the home for a number of years. The disclosure was prepared by broker to best of their ability, please investigate all info to your own satisfaction. There had been a above ground inside oil tank leak that was cleaned up by the DEP but water in well has not been tested so unknown if drinkable. No plumbing permit was found in town file for septic but believed to be a two bedroom design. Again priced because of the condition of the house and expense of removal and unknowns.
