8 Alden Thrasher Rd Monson, MA 01057

Outstanding lot near Hampden town line, privacy awaits you, located on a dead end road bounding a cascading brook w/native trout! 268' road frontage, just 6 minutes from Hampden Center (Main St & Somers Rd). Land starts 277' south of Lower Hampden Rd at the brook & bridge on left. Temple brook is the entire north boundary of this land. Land continues on road to an iron rod & neighbor's firing range sign (a popular/common way to discourage trespassing, there is not a public firing range). 201' further south the road becomes a discontinued town road, meaning in it's present status, land south along the road cannot qualify for subdivision development. 1,900' further south along road meets 295 acres of conservation land owned by the town & Reservation Trust. The contiguous town ownership also has road frontage/access out on Lower Hampden Rd around the corner from this land for sale, access location being 1,700 feet (1/3 mile) east of Alden Thrasher Rd.
