## Description

### Agent Description
Rare opportunity to acquire 2.12 acres of high, dry land in a highly visible commercial corridor. The property includes a charming 1,700+/- SF, three-bedroom, two-bath home built in 1830 on a solid granite foundation that has stood the test of time for nearly two centuries. Also included is a well-maintained barn that originated as a 30' x 30' horse barn with loft space and has been expanded to provide approximately 1,000 square feet of additional usable area. Both structures are in good condition and offer excellent potential for renovation, adaptive reuse, or redevelopment. Community water is available at the street. The property is zoned C-1, allowing for a wide range of commercial and industrial uses, including retail, restaurant, banking, office, salon, barber shop, educational, daycare, and various light industrial applications. Strategically located near the busy signalized intersection of State Routes 111 and 121A, the site benefits from outstanding visibility, accessibility, and traffic exposure. Surrounded by established businesses such as Hannaford, Walgreens, and East Coast Lumber, and situated directly across from the popular Colby Corner, this property presents a compelling opportunity for investors, owner-users, or developers seeking a prime commercial location with exceptional future potential.
