What's special

Historic charmScenic paradise roadAttached barnModern possibilities

Set on the scenic Paradise Road in Bethel, this early 1900s farmhouse beautifully combines historic charm with modern possibilities. Featuring an attached barn, the property is currently a single-family home but offers the flexibility to be converted into a two-unit space, with the potential to add a kitchenette upstairs. The expansive land behind the house opens up opportunities for future development or parcel sales for additional single-family homes, subject to town permitting—though you'll appreciate the absence of a governing HOA. The location is ideal, offering the convenience of walking everywhere and close proximity to the Bethel Village Trails, perfect for Nordic skiing, trail running, or mountain biking. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a smart investment, this property has endless potential.
