Do you want a mini farm or just privacy ? Once a thriving flower business with several greenhouses on the property and a combination barn/garage/ greenhouse structure, the property supplied many people with opportunities to select beautiful plantings for their homes and landscaping. The land has some open areas but mostly wooded and has a very small natural pond . The drone photos give views of the general area and includes some ot this 17 acres. Nearby are several horse farms . The property has a small 4 room house which has an updated roof, siding,and furnace. Interior is in process of being emptied out from furnishings . The lower level has many windows with light and brightness if you want to make a workshop or man cave, The interior is a perfect canvas and you paint the picture by renovating the interior with a new kitchen ,bath and paint or you keep a more rustic interior and paint and refurbish the existing rooms.
