About this home

Charming, buildable lot on a quiet road in one of Sterling’s transitioning residential areas. This level, sun-filled parcel offers an easy path to construction, ideal for a year-round home or seasonal retreat with minimal site work. Once part of a quaint campground, the neighborhood now features a peaceful, close-knit feel with a relaxed, cottage-like atmosphere.Enjoy nearby lake access for kayaking, fishing, or unwinding by the water, plus the Rail Trail less than a mile away for walking and biking. Utilities are available at the road, and the lot is well-suited for a single-family residence. Tucked away yet still convenient to town amenities, shopping, and commuting routes, this property offers a great balance of privacy, community, and outdoor recreation. Across the street are 2 additional deeded parking spots!
