About this home
Amazing opportunity! This 5.5 acres had a beautiful home that was lost to a fire. Sad, for sure, BUT you get the benefit of a full foundation, well, septic, drive, power and a 2 car garage to boot! Design your own home, stick built or modular. The spot has a small view of the French Meadow that opens up with the fall and winter. Private and tucked back from the road on a tiny bit of unpaved road and minutes to town , hospital and I91 for quick access to the rest of the world. This is the site to get you into the home you have been looking for!

LR-10
Land Reserve 10-Acre District
The land reserve 10-acre district is designed to maintain open space in the outlying areas at a smaller minimum acreage while encouraging the same uses that would be applicable to the land reserve 25-acre district. These areas are more accessible than land reserve 25-acre, but the topography may be mixed and irregular similar to the residential/agricultural 5-acre district. Generally new development would require on-site water and sewer. See also the requirements of the zoning district, if any, set forth in the town plan and current and future land use maps.
