About this home
Bring your vision to 91 Mountain Rd, a private country property tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end road in Rising Sun. This property is being offered in its current condition and the home is in the process of being gutted, requiring a full renovation. The value here is in the land, setting, outbuildings, and potential to create something truly your own. Set on a peaceful rural property with agricultural zoning, the lot offers plenty of space for gardening, recreation, animals, equipment, or a future homestead. Existing outbuildings include a horse shed that provides useful space for livestock, farm equipment, storage, or hobbies. The property also features an established orchard with apple, plum, pear, and cherry trees, along with a grape arbor, blueberry bushes, and mature bamboo providing privacy. Whether you're looking to renovate the existing home, create a country retreat, establish a small farm, or simply enjoy the privacy and open space, this property offers a unique opportunity. Conveniently located just minutes from Rising Sun, with easy access to grocery stores, Tractor Supply, hardware stores, restaurants, vineyards, and other everyday amenities. Property is being sold as-is. Buyer should perform their own due diligence regarding the existing structures, zoning, permitted uses, utilities, renovation requirements, and any potential future development. A rare opportunity to take a property with an established country setting and transform it into something of your own.
