AG
Agricultural District
The AG, Agricultural District, is primarily intended to accommodate uses of an agricultural nature, including farm residences and farm tenant housing. It also accommodates scattered non-farm residences on large tracts of land. It is not intended for major residential subdivisions. The district is established for the following purposes: 1) To preserve and encourage the continued use of land for agricultural, forest and open space purposes; 2) To discourage scattered commercial and industrial land uses; 3) To concentrate urban development in and around area growth centers, thereby avoiding premature conversion of farmland to urban uses; 4) To discourage any use which, because of its character, would create premature or extraordinary public infrastructure and service demands.
Directions: From Sandy Ridge Rd, turn onto Endicott Rd, left on Lakedale Rd, follow the curve to right on Adkins Rd, right on Boylston Rd, then left on Westborne Grove Ct. First gravel driveway on the left. Home is privately situated and not visible from the road.
