Welcome to 318 French Rd in Plympton. The property operated as a commercial dairy farm during the 70s and 80s. It has a paved driveway and approx. 375 feet of road frontage. It is located just 1 KM inland from St Marys Bay and is conveniently situated between the towns of Weymouth and Digby. This approx 5 acre parcel of land is about 80 percent pasture, with a few apple trees scattered here and there. The rest is a mix of old growth trees, new growth saplings, bushes, vines and a low lying area that would make for a great pond! The 50' x 30' barn was built in the late 60s. It sits on a cement pad, is wood framed, metal clad and insulated. Its water and power come through an underground service and water line from the house. The upstairs loft is 14' x 46' and was once a living space. The old farm house was built in the late 19nth century and is clad with cedar shingles. It sits on a stone cellar foundation that was converted to a basement with cement floor and porched entrance. Metal roofing was installed on half the house in the fall of 2021. The remainder of the metal roofing is stored in the barn, and is enough to finish the job! The house is nestled under six huge Maple trees that keep it nice and cool during the hot summer months. It has three sources of heat: a barrel fed Oil Miser heater, that burns very little oil and less power, an Enterprise wood stove in the kitchen, and a Kerr wood furnace in the basement. Alongside the house is a car garage sitting on poured concrete walls. The lower part acts as a cold room and a wood room. Water is sourced by a dug well that never goes dry, even during the hot, dry summer months. This is a solid home but has repairs to be completed, that are mostly cosmetic. This home is certainly a rural location, but still only a ten minute drive to Weymouth, which will give you access to small town shopping, and some of the best free spring water in the world. Digby is just 20 minutes away! A must see! (id:47241)
