A rare opportunity to own 17.24 acres of beautiful, wooded land in Chocolay Township that has been in the same family since the 1950s. Featuring mature conifers, old apple trees, and frontage on both County Road 480 and Cherry Creek Road, this property offers privacy, character, and tremendous potential. Subject to township approval, the property appears to meet zoning requirements for a possible three-way split, making it an attractive option for development, multiple homesites, or a private family retreat. An existing permitted well and septic system are located on the property and may be available for future use, subject to buyer verification. The old farmhouse has not been occupied or maintained for a couple of decades and is being sold in as-is condition. The home has a hole in the roof and will require significant repairs or possible removal. However, buyers with vision may see the opportunity to restore this classic farmhouse and preserve a piece of local history. Whether you are looking to build your dream home, develop multiple parcels, create a family compound, or take on a restoration project, this property offers endless possibilities. A true diamond in the rough with the beauty and character that only time can create. See also, MLS #50213810.
