About This Home

Tucked high in the hills at 858 McDonough Rd, this one-of-a-kind Oxford property offers history, privacy, and abundant possibilities. First time offered for sale after remaining in the same family since1951, the off-grid farmhouse dates to1880 and is ready for a thoughtful restoration that honors its original character. The 3-bedroom,1-bathroom house is a true renovation project, providing a rare chance to revive an older home and create a personalized country escape. Whether your plans include a seasonal camp, hunting retreat, homestead, or secluded full-time residence, the setting provides a compelling foundation for your vision. Across the beautiful acreage, open areas mingle with mature woods, offering space for gardens, recreation, trails, or simply enjoying the quiet landscape. A stream winds through the property, while old stone walls lend texture and a tangible connection to the land's past. Wildlife is plentiful, making every season an opportunity to observe nature from your own backyard. Road frontage on two roads adds flexibility for access and future use. The home sits along a secondary maintained road, preserving its tucked-away atmosphere without sacrificing practical access. Its mountain location feels wonderfully removed, yet Norwich and Price Chopper are within convenient driving distance. Bowman Lake State Park is also nearby for swimming, camping, hiking, fishing, and year-round outdoor fun. Snowmobiling and additional fishing opportunities throughout the area further enhance the recreational appeal. Bring your tools, imagination, and appreciation for authentic rural properties-this long-held family estate is ready to begin its next chapter. 480 - A Forestry Tax Program.
