Property Description

Subdivision Potential! One of the Largest Land Parcels in Bethel – Over 61 Acres! A rare opportunity for investors, developers, and visionaries to own more than 61 acres in the highly sought-after Codfish Hill area. This former farmland, once a thriving homestead, offers a unique combination of development potential and the charm of an existing colonial farmhouse with multiple outbuildings. The property includes an oversized 3-bay garage/barn with a full second level, and a nearly 4,500 sq. ft. farmhouse filled with character and possibility. Inside, you’ll find a grand great room with a soaring floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace featuring French doors leading to an expansive deck-perfect for entertaining. The home features 5 bedrooms (potentially 6), 3.5 baths, and 3 stone fireplaces, including a first-floor primary suite with separate office/nursery, its own fireplace and spa-like bath, plus a walk-out lower-level in-law suite with private entrance, stone fireplace, and separate laundry hookups. This is truly a diamond in the rough-whether you’re looking to restore the farmhouse to its former glory or envisioning a subdivision project on one of the largest parcels left in Bethel. Opportunities like this are few and far between-don’t miss it! Buyer use due diligence in possible subdivision and zoning requirements per town of Bethel. Property is part of an estate and sold as-is and subject to probate approval.
