It would be nice to see someone rebuild it into a home but not at that price.
I believe they did a new well and septic as well, plus some work on the guest cottage. The cottage was rented out for some time.

A resort plan had been done and parties were interested however they really needed direct access from route 11, and this came with a seven figure price tag to make it happen. This was another deterrent on top of the seven figure price tag for the property at that time. At one point it was listed over $2mil.

I am close with the realtor involved at that time.
