Description
Pristine, wild, accessible oceanfront land. Eagles, Bobcats and Ducks for neighbors yet only 10 minutes from the lovely town of Barrington. Surrounded by conservation and private land with deeded and public access to help ensure its accessibility for residential use. The land has 100 feet of white sand frontage and 200 feet of pond frontage and 2 bush lots. The land is 95% high ground covered in Black Spruce Forest that smells heavenly. There is enough kindling/firewood potential on the land to make some money or keep the house warm for years. PIDs 80059710 (waterfront) and 80059744 (bush lots).
The property boasts aprox. 1 acre of lovely beach meadow that runs between the pond and the beach, it is full of roses and songbirds. There are 3 beaches in a row that are privately owned or conservation lands. The river is tidal and full of life, at low tide you can cross it and get to the third and largest beach which is owned by conservation. With almost 300 feet of water frontage it is a dream, especially because for the white sand beach that is part of it. You can canoe/row across the pond to the beach or walk around. You can watch the Gannets fly by, the Cormorants dive and the Seagulls bath in the pond. You can watch the sun rise over the water and watch the storms blow in from the south.
The forest lands behind the pond are also full of songbirds. The soft mossy forest floor and the bearded moss hanging from the Spruce really live up to their coastal habitat. Mix that with flowering, brilliant green under story and rare plants, the woods and coastal area are quite mystical. It is rugged land, but, when you spend a bit of time working it the payoff is rich because the bones are solid and the habitat full of flowering/singing life.
The roadway extends from Villagedale Road and winds it’s way down through both private and conservation lands. It needs back fill/culverts/clearing to make it driveable, but it is the right of way to the meadow which you cross to come around to the land behind the ponds. According to the township it is not a municipally classed road.
Whether sold as conservation or sold privately, the goal should be to protect the beach and meadow areas. They are home to Plovers and many little songbirds as well as birds of prey and seagulls. There is a resident bobcat, and you will often hear the coyotes in the night.
