Where can you find a house (that needs work) on 15 acres for this price? Almost nowhere and never! But, you will need to roll up Your Sleeves - This attractive looking country home on over 15 acres will need a complete interior redo, everything, from insulation to wiring, to interior walls, foundation and support work, heating system, everything. The siding is good and the roof is good and fairly new but assume that just about everything else needs work. The preferred buyer should be able to pay cash or otherwise with need to provide pre-approval from a lender for a construction loan. The house is probably not habitable at this time. There are two easements, one runs deep underground for the Hoosac Tunnel along the northern property boundary and the other runs north south through the middle of the property. Neither of these would restrict access to any of the land but you could not build within either easement area. The property lies within the R4 district requiring a minimum of 75' of frontage and 1/4 acre in lot size thus the property could be divided into 3 parcels.
All offers must include proof of funds for cash or pre-approval from a lender. A single deposit of $4,000 payable to Harsch Associates should accompany the offer. No second deposit is needed.
