About This Property

Tamara's Treasure: a mid 1990's cape with loads of history. The property is in 3 parcels and was the home to the Old Grigsby Store and corn crib. After the last sale, in 1960, the crib and store were converted to Country Squire Antiques with the house to follow years later. Presently, the buildings remain along with an old barn all overlooking the lower pond. The views are wonderful from the upper lot, with views of both ponds and the mountains, and very good from the house. And yes, there are two ponds! The house has a classic floor plan with a primary suite on the main floor along with the washer and drier hook-ups so single level living, with only minor steps to enter the house, is at hand. If one wanted, an open floor plan could be created. The room sizes are generous without being cavernous and sliding doors abound to maximize the outdoor views and access. The feel of the house is one of light and bright. The kitchen has new stainless appliances which have never been used. The woodburning fireplace hasn't been used in years and is a lovely focal point in the living room and visible from the dining area. The front porch is perfect for watching the sun set over the mountain and the deer and other animals visiting the pond. The back yard is more private and a huge black walnut tree sits next to the driveway. The outbuildings that housed the antique store have power and heat, one has A/C but have not been in used for a while. Either would make a good home office or art studio with internet provided via Starlink, forthcoming broadband or bring your cell phone and give it a test. Some people have been impressed with the coverage but results have been uneven. With a total of 12 acres in three parcels, which means they can be sold separately and other houses built on them, this is an excellent investment property. Most of the land is open with on grade state road access. It's rare to find one property for sale that has the ability to become a family compound with a total of 3 homes. So bring your horses, donkeys, llamas, chickens, ducks or other critters out to the farm. Build your greenhouse, plant your veggie garden, create the landscaping you've always dreamed of because this type of property is rarely available.
