1191 Hay Cove Road, Lochside
This expansive property sits in Lochside, just a short drive from the shimmering shores of Loch Lomond Lake, offering 205 acres of open fields, woodland pockets, and rolling landscapes that invite imagination to roam. The land unfolds with a natural rhythm, featuring sunlit meadows suitable for grazing or cultivation and stands of mature trees that provide shade, birdsong, and a timeless sense of place. A driveway stretches 2,000 feet into the property, while power lines extend 900 feet into the interior, offering a practical head start for bringing utilities deeper onto the land and supporting future structures or projects. The main house, though historic and full of character, is likely beyond repair and would require extensive renovation or demolition. The barn, by contrast, holds genuine promise. With a bit of TLC, it can become a robust, multi-use structure suitable for storage, shelter for livestock, or a workshop. The land itself offers a versatile canvas: open fields provide ready-made space for farming, grazing, or crops, while woodland pockets add privacy, habitat, and management opportunities, from timber harvest to habitat restoration or simply inviting wildlife to the doorstep. The size of the property lends itself to a thoughtful, phased approach to development or stewardship, allowing an owner to tailor the intensity of use. Proximity to Loch Lomond Lake means easy opportunities for fishing, boating or swimming, all while preserving the serenity of a rural landscape. The surrounding area exudes a sense of community and timeless rural character, with wide skies and open space that make each sunset feel earned and memorable. The potential uses are broad and flexible. (id:1945)
