Highlands Land

MLS Number 101409

• Acreage 9.76

A 'WALK-TO-TOWN' wonderland of overgrown cow pasture and Old Growth forest. The 'Old Edward's family homesite' land was purchased by C.B. Edwards from Sam Kelsey in 1878. The property remains owned by those heirs. Being 'Private Property' it was spared the cutting of Kelsey's Primeval Forest in 1946. Now, 144 years later, Turkey's Foot, Princess Pine, various mosses, and ferns still cover the gentle forest floor, animal paths lead here, there and everywhere. A grouping of Wild Plum trees in full fruit were recently discovered....and delicious. The big trees are stunning and the proximity to town most notable. Wouldn't it be wonderful to own your very own Nature Preserve inside Highlands city limit. Property adjoins HCLT Kelsey Trail. This much land in R2 opens up many possibilities. Public sewer has already been installed under the path of unopened Poplar Street which fronts this parcel. Public water is also available. BE BEAR WISE!!!

On one corner of the property sits an old well house, one of only a few still remaining in Highlands. An old house from the 1920s sat on the pasture area but had to be dismantled because sadly, it was not in salvageable condition. Plans and pictures are available, however, if someone wants to recreate and enhance this part of history. The new owner also has exciting possibilities. As indicated, the parcel can be divided into four estate-sized lots, but an owner may want to consider other options. A preliminary rendering of how the parcel can be utilized is available. Perhaps, after validating with the necessary financial and Land Trust officials, the owner could utilize one or two spots for new homes and take advantage of tax benefits by retaining the remainder as a quiet, beautiful community area that will then be forever preserved for the enjoyment of future generations of families who appreciate and value the distinct benefits of Highlands. Regardless how a buyer may choose to proceed, the options are mesmerizing.Please check with the listing agents for other ideas about maximizing this beautiful place.
