About this home
Opportunity awaits in the quiet woods of Petersham! Set on approximately 1.4 wooded acres, this established residential site offers a unique setting for a buyer with vision. Imagine a quaint country retreat surrounded by nature. The existing 1936 structure is uninhabitable and in significant disrepair, inviting you to look beyond what is here today and imagine what could come next. Per seller, the Town previously indicated that the existing structure is a tear-down and that rebuilding may be possible using the existing footprint. Surrounded by the natural beauty and rural character Petersham is known for, the property offers a peaceful wooded setting with abundant outdoor recreation nearby. Explore miles of local trails, conservation lands and Harvard Forest, along with hiking, fishing and seasonal recreational opportunities throughout the Quabbin Reservoir region. Whether you're a builder, investor, or buyer dreaming of a small country retreat, this property offers an intriguing chance to start fresh and make the setting your own.
