If you're looking for your own piece of heaven, this may be it. Hard to find and full of potential, this modest single-level home is set on a secluded 5+ acre parcel of gorgeous open meadow. Located on a private road near the Woodbury/Bethlehem line, the home offers three bedrooms, an eat-in kitchen, dining room, living room with fireplace, breezeway, and an attached two-car garage. With only a step or two from parking to the living area, the layout provides easy single-level living. The home is set back from the road, providing distant views, abundant meadowland, and wonderful privacy from neighbors. The property is ideal for raising animals, building a workshop, creating expansive gardens, or simply enjoying the peace and open space. While the interior needs some TLC, the current owners have already upgraded several major items, including a new roof, new furnace, and new oil tank. For the right person, the remaining work is manageable, and the outcome could be a true gem for years to come.
