Description

In 1890, someone stood on a rise off Huckleberry Hill Road and decided that was where the house belonged. They were right. The farmhouse is still there - 1,934 square feet, three bedrooms, a three-bay garage beside it, a roof and skylights new in 2025. It is honest about its age. Sold as-is, it waits for someone with a plan and a contractor. Proportions like that cannot be built today at any price. What has changed is what sits next door. Three approved building lots - 1.79, 1.53 and 1.77 acres. Subdivision approval, zoning approval, survey, all in hand. Ask any builder in the Farmington Valley what kills a deal and almost none will say framing. They will say the eighteen months: the engineer, the hearings, the carrying cost, the night the answer comes back no. That work is already finished here, and the price does not reflect what it cost. Together, the four parcels let you sequence. Rehab the farmhouse and let it fund the sitework next door. Build the three lots and bring the old house to market last, after the street has set its own price. Or never subdivide at all - one estate, one compound, the original house standing where it always has. Public sewer in the street. Premier-rated schools. Collinsville and the Farmington River minutes away. Avon is not making more of this. Five contiguous acres, approvals complete, offered rather than kept. That sequence almost never completes. When it does, the only question left is who called first.
