Public water. Ready for your builder to create a sanctuary that capitalizes on the unique natural beauty/topography of this preserved land, a quick golf cart ride to Whitetail Golf Club up Slate Post/Trickle Creek, and minutes to quaint downtown Bath, within the Northampton School District. Possible for Buyer to retain much of the acreage in Act 319 for favorable/lower property taxes for land preservation. Adjacent to 2 acre classic farmette at 450 N. Chestnut and the new to-be-built luxury home south on 987.
