378 Lost Nation Road

This home and land offer the experience of a true haven-good for the body, mind and soul! The fresh air and spring water nourish the body, the natural sounds and scents calm and invigorate the mind, and the natural beauty all around welcomes attention back to what is most present and alive. On a very practical level, this home and land is also a refuge from threats of higher energy prices and potential food scarcity. The artisan spring-fed-well gravity feeds to the house where there is an old-fashioned hand pump to bring fresh water to you-even if the electricity does go out. If the electricity does go out, there is a $10,000 solar system already installed which integrates into the main circuit board of the house. This means that all house circuits can be powered either by on-grid or off-grid generated power. There are also blueberry bushes, an apple tree with delicious fruit, and a second garden which has been regularly enriched with manure from a local organic dairy farm. The spring fed pond has been stocked with rainbow trout for a bit of aquaculture, and there is a perfect space behind the garage for a chicken coop. The house itself is so well insulated that the gas heater keeps things toasty at a relatively low cost, and the cook stove in the basement means heat and a place to cook-even if propane gets super expensive or hard to get. The second building that comes with the house provides a comfortable covered parking spot which saves time cleaning off the car on winter mornings. Also, there is a studio space upstairs with maple flooring included and partially installed-a great space for yoga or guests to stay in the summer. Come and sense this home and land for yourself. You may find you have found your perfect haven. This property will not qualify for VA, VHFA, FHA, RD or USDA.
