A rare opportunity to own your own private country retreat on 14.84 acres with a beautiful hardwood and maple forest, located just outside the village of Wellesley. This unique property offers the perfect combination of peaceful rural living, recreational space, and incredible potential for those looking to embrace a more self-sufficient lifestyle. Approximately 150 maple trees are currently tapped for maple syrup production with plenty of opportunity to expand. A small sugar shack with boiler is already in place and ready for next season. This brick bungalow offers a comfortable layout designed for everyday living. The kitchen and dinette are open to the family room, where a fireplace creates a warm inviting space, and sliding doors provide easy access to the backyard. A large bright living room and dining area offer additional space to relax or entertain, while a powder room, laundry room and garage access add everyday convenience. The spacious primary bedroom features a private ensuite, while two additional bedrooms and a 4-piece bathroom provide plenty of room for family or guests. The possibilities continue downstairs with a huge, unfinished basement featuring high ceilings and an abundance of space to create whatever you envision. A recreation room, home gym, workshop, office, additional bedrooms, or a combination of uses could all be possible. The home is equipped with 200-amp electrical service and a double garage. This property is really impressive outdoors, with a large 65' x 30' shop that is insulated on one side with water, plus an additional 40' x 16' shed for equipment, toys or seasonal storage. There is extensive parking, including plenty of room for an RV.
