About this home
FRONTAGE ON THE EAST BRANCH OF THE WESTPORT RIVER - Welcome to 984 Drift Road. Just north of Hix Bridge, it is truly a rare find to have such a beautiful, UNSPOILED 3.6+ acre watefront estate lot offering complete privacy with an expansive lawn area along with a wooded area sheltering a path leading to the marsh and river. Prominently situated on the lot's highest elevation, a two bedroom 1920's cottage offers peaceful views extending over the marsh and river to the opposite tree lined shore. Although recently rented, the cottage needs serious improvements along with a new septic system. Also included is a two car garage and small storage shed. There is a walkway over the marsh. Please see disclosures. The current cottage's location is completely out of the flood zone. This property will require work and substantial investment. However, what a gem !!!!! Property being sold " as is, as seen". Offers due Wed., Sept 24, by NOON.
