Two potential build sites. Scenic surroundings. Flexible possibilities. 🌿

This unique parcel offers a rare opportunity to create something truly special with R15 zoning, flagged corners, and separate east + west build areas divided by River Road while remaining one parcel.

The east side already features an approved soil evaluation for a 2-bedroom peat septic system and has been recently mulched, making it ready for your vision to begin taking shape. Build elevated to capture beautiful river, golf course, and pond views with covered parking or storage below.

On the riverside, DOT-installed culvert access opens the door for additional possibilities including a home office, flex space, guest living area, or creative retreat with appropriate permits and site prep.

✔️ Manufactured or stick-built homes allowed
✔️ No HOA
✔️ Waterfront-area setting
✔️ Room for creativity + future potential

Opportunities like this don’t come around often. Reach out for more details
