Discover a rare opportunity at 261 Wheelock Rd, a tranquil 4.93-acre estate offering privacy, natural beauty, and endless potential. Zoned Residential Agricultural (RA), the land provides ample space for agricultural pursuits, equestrian facilities, or the development of a private estate. With over 200 feet of frontage along Wheelock Rd, the property offers easy access and visibility, making it ideal for various ventures.
The land is already thriving with approximately 2 acres of vineyard planted with Zinfandel, Chardonnay, Pinot, and Merlot grapes. A flourishing orchard with 28 fruit trees produces pears, lemons, cherries, apples, oranges, persimmons, pomegranates, and figs. The garden is currently yielding squash and lettuce, with tomatoes, corn, peas, and cabbage on the way.
