Camp on 3.4 Acres, adjacent to 80 conservation acres, for sale or rent.


The basics are as follows:


It is on a town maintained dirt road, shares a right-of-way/driveway with the neighbor, and I was able to get in and out of there with my Saturn in the wintertime. It is set back from the road, and the trees near the road block the view of passers-by. Danbury is  small, but has Ragged Mountain Ski Resort, the Inn at Danbury for great german food, and there's a boat launch for Waukeena Lake a mile from the cabin. It sits on a 3.4 acre lot, adjacent to 80 acres of conservation land (as it doesn't have road access, no one can build on it). It's about 1 mile from Grafton on back roads, and is easy to commute to New London or Andover from there on the back roads as well.


It's small (I can dig up the exact dimensions for you, but something like 30x40), has a bedroom (1 bdr), a bathroom (toilet/shower/hot water on a 2bdr septic with it's own well) and a great room with kitchen area/sink, electric, phone, and the internet access would be best via Verizon Wireless. The stovetop is propane, and it has both a woodstove and a propane heater. It could use some work, and we would reimburse any pre-authorized repairs if we were renting it. We have no problem with pets being there, and it can be furnished or unfurnished. To rent, it would be approx $600/ mo, to purchase we would ask $80k. The rental price can be negotiable if a year lease is signed. It will be available at the end of November, so please contact us with any reasonable offers asap. Thanks!

What happened to the family that was living there?

Moving closer to Concord (P, who now has a very part-time job, & the kids), and L is taking a job back home (temporarily, starts mid-Nov) to make ends meet, since he'd been out of work for awhile. He figures he can job search more effectively if he is currently employed, as well as having a NH local address.

It should be noted that there's also room for a 40-foot (or maybe even a bit larger) mobile home on the lot.  Or one of those shipping-container homes that folks have been talking about.

Live in the cabin while setting something else up, then move into the new place and rent out the cabin to new movers, maybe?

This cabin is available- I had rented it through June 14th.  It is a nice cabin-and a good place to start.  But I will not be back in the grafton area during that time so it is available to be rented.

And, just as a note, if someone does rent it, rs38bj gets a refund of the unused portion of his rent.  So if you might be interested, that might encourage you to get moving sooner, rather than later.

What is the rent per month ?

Would month too month be welcome ... with a commitment of say 6 months ? 

What was the cost to purchase outright .. if I remember correctly the parcel was more than a few acres .

I miss that area so much. 

If you ever consider buying the cabin you'll find it well priced compared to the local property prices.  About a half mile away there's a smaller and no so well built cabin on less than one acre for 33,000. 

Denise and Joe's cabin is very well insulated for one thing, built to last, and it's got 3 1/2 acres.  Just not enough acreage for me, I need at least 25-50 for my purposes.

To wander aimlessly, minding his own business.

BJ, I just got back in town. Are you no longer in Grafton? That was quick! :(

I might be interested in renting it but a huge drawback would be if my phone didn't work there since it's my primary internet connection and I work on the interwebs.

May I drive down there sometimes this week and walk the property to test the signal there? I already know where it is, I helped BJ move in.

Certainly.

There is a regular telephone connection, which could be used for dialup.  A previous tenant (41mag) used a Verizon Wireless USB modem for Internet access.

Went down there today to check the place out and I got no signals at all. :(

Just a note that we'll be up that way tomorrow morning, if anyone wants to check the place out while it's open.

It's currently rented.

We'll entertain purchase offers, obviously, but can't entertain rental offers at this time.

Could be.  Just a few minutes from Hoyt.

Lex, at the corner of Slab and Dean Hill has it.

Apparently our DSL is coming from the Danbury direction, so it may already be available there.
Title: Re: Cabin for sale / rent - Danbury, NH
Post by: K. Darien Freeheart on August 17, 2010, 02:50 PM NHFT
Yep. I'm even closer to the cabin than Lex and Hoyt and I've got it. Over on this side, we're coming up from Danbury while the other side comes from Caanan.

Add that to your listing. :) 7 meg DSL is VERY likely available.

I spoke to Fairpoint, and they said it's not there at that address, quite yet, but they have working systems about a mile away, so it will be there darn soon.

On the sale standpoint, that's good news for us; it probably adds $10k to the value, given the number of times we had folks interested, but lack of broadband was the dealbreaker.
