From the Zillow listing:

Rarely do we see an opportunity like this come along! Take this +/-5 acre building lot with beautiful flat and rolling meadows and pasture land with incredible southeasterly mountain views; add to that the solid timber frame bones of a vintage 1.5 story c1800 cape with small barn/outbuilding and you are well on your way to becoming a Vermont Farmsteader. Located along a lightly traveled county road just minutes from Pawlet Village, Wells Village(Lake ST Catherine) and Granville, New York — you will have rural privacy with the convenience of amenities nearby. Although the house was occupied steadily until 2010 – it has been vacant since then and will need significant repairs…total rehab.. Possibly rebuild the home or salvage the hand hewn timber frame and build back on the land for additional privacy and views! There is a new wastewater disposal design for a 5 bedroom house available with a Vermont state ww permit pending.  This property is ideal for some animals or simply a gorgeous country setting for your forever Pawlet home. School choice for grades 7 – 12 and high speed Fiber Optic Internet available.  Showings begin Monday 9/04
