597 Main St S, Bethlehem, CT 06751

Tucked away in the charming town of Bethlehem sits this rare waterfront property. Spanning 3.67 acres, it’s perfect for the HGTV-inspired buyer who prefers fixer uppers over move-in ready and treating a home like a blank canvas. The property evokes a private nature reserve with its impressive array of wildlife including a resident heron. Anchoring this peaceful acreage is a boulder-reinforced pond. The open-concept 3 BED/3 BATH residence has plenty of windows for natural light and offers idyllic views of the outdoors. A detached two-level barn, equipped with heat and air conditioning, is ideal for the creative type. The 1,000 sq. ft. upper level is divided into 2 spaces; 1 currently operates as a dark room but could easily function as an art studio, office, rental, Airbnb, or space for extended family. The barn has a two-car garage and a nearby private driveway for plenty of parking space. Perimeter of home is fully fenced. Property is minutes from historic Bethlehem, where you can enjoy homemade wines from Bethlehem Vineyard and Winery or hand-picked fruits and berries from the fourth-generation-owned March Farm. There are also museums, gardens, and annual events, including the Bethlehem Christmas Town Festival and the Garlic and Harvest Festival, to celebrate the seasons with friends & family. This Main Street South home is AS IS and has much potential in an already desirable location.
