All of the road frontage is fully paved, maintained and has electric available.  Of the total acreage 53 is open and tillable, 62 are productive hardwood sawtimber, 78 are forested wetlands and the remaining 9 acres are brush and hedgerows. The woodlot was last harvested approximately 7 years ago with by a professional forester and is currently stocked with 565,407 board feet of timber based on a timber cruise conducted by FORECON, Inc. in December, 2021.  The main species are Sugar Maple, Red Maple and Hickory.  If managed properly the property could provide income on a 10-15 year rotation to help with taxes or other upkeep making the property almost self-sufficient!
