Rare Opportunity in Newtown! Just minutes from town, this 22+ acre property offers unmatched potential. Featuring a classic 1883 New England farmhouse and a 442 sq. ft. guest cottage with additional 2 car garage, both ready for your vision and updates, this property is bursting with charm and possibilities. The land is the true star: Rolling meadows, mature trees, stone walls, and total privacy. Ideal for farming (agriculture, dairy, livestock, fiber, equestrian, kennels, events), recreation, or creating your dream estate. We believe there is potential for 3-5 lots with a possible first cut. The buyers will need to do their own due diligence. The main home offers original character with two fireplaces, spacious living areas, and a covered patio. The cottage adds flexibility for guests, a studio, or office. Whether you restore, reimagine, or redevelop, this is your chance to own one of Newtown's most exciting and versatile properties. Sold as is, where is. Endless options. Exceptional value. Don't miss this rare find! The current owners have a Dog Kennel Permit.
