Rare buildable riverfront lot along the scenic Contoocook River! This surveyed 1.8-acre parcel offers an exceptional combination of open, usable land, mature wooded edges and a peaceful natural setting just minutes from the heart of Henniker. From the road, the property opens into a broad, level field with established gardens, landscape beds and pathways leading toward the water. Along the rear of the parcel, approximately 257 feet of direct river frontage, plus additional frontage along a canal, creates a remarkable backdrop for a future home. Much of the preliminary planning and infrastructure work toward building has already been completed. Municipal water and electricity are on site. Available property documentation includes an approved five-bedroom septic design, an approved Shoreland Impact Permit with associated fees paid, established Base Flood Elevations and plans developed for future construction. These improvements and documents give the next owner a valuable head start compared with purchasing a typical undeveloped lot. Located within Henniker's Village Commerce District, the property offers flexibility for potential residential, investment or live/work concepts. This exceptional location is minutes from Pats Peak Ski Area and year-round outdoor recreation, offers convenient access to Concord and Manchester, and is approximately 90 minutes from Boston. The on-site RV and building materials may be purchased separately. Walk the field, follow the paths to the water and it is easy to see what makes this parcel special: open space, river scenery, village convenience and substantial planning already completed.
