Nestled on 10 acres of lush land, this charming house with a guest house and two full RV hook-ups offers complete privacy and tranquility, all bordered by 140 acres protected within a conservation easement on neighboring property—ensuring your peaceful retreat remains untouched for generations to come. The 10 acres themselves are not in a conservation easement and have no deed restrictions, allowing you to enjoy unmatched flexibility and freedom while benefiting from the privacy provided by the surrounding protected land. The property also includes a ready-to-build third home site, complete with water, power, and septic connections—ideal for expanding your vision of this retreat. This property is a unique combination of modern sustainability with boundless potential.

Imagine never paying a power bill again. Designed with self-sustainability in mind, the commercial kitchen is equipped for food production and storage, complete with freeze-drying equipment, a fruit press, and distillation equipment for essential oil production—ideal for small business ventures or personal use. The Additional Guest House (400 sq. ft.), situated as a private and separate living space, offers versatile opportunities—ideal for hosting family, guests, or generating rental income. Key highlights include: Versatility: This property supports a variety of lifestyles, with abundant domestic water taps and irrigation shares, you can envision an eco-living haven, multi-family living, or rental/retreat opportunities. Sustainability and Self-Sufficiency: The lush grounds host organic fruit trees (apple, pear, peach, nectarine, apricot, cherry, mulberry), berry bushes, wine grapes, and a 30'x50' greenhouse with power and water. Mature flower, herb, and vegetable gardens thrive in the rich soil under the shade of a canopy of gorgeous trees. Lifestyle Opportunities: Whether you're dreaming of family gatherings, eco-tourism ventures, or simply relaxing in an inspiring natural setting, this property delivers. The open-concept main house, with its cozy sitting nooks and stylish slate tile floors, is ideal for entertaining or unwinding, while the expansive kitchen—with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and a professional-grade range hood—makes every culinary endeavor a joy. The property’s location in the scenic North Fork Valley adds even more charm, offering breathtaking views, access to nature trails, and a vibrant community that values sustainable living and creativity. Don’t miss this rare chance to own a truly exceptional piece of paradise—a multi-family or generational dream come true!
