Overview
Description
One word sums up this property. Opportunity! Situated directly on the picturesque LaHave River in New Germany, just 20 mins from Bridgewater. The 3.2 acres +/- of land with approximately 1200 feet of waterfront after being subdivided is on solid shale, above the flood plain and can be connected to Municipal sewer. There is a large, open, 32x70 (2240 sq ft) building that could be converted into a single family home, multigenerational residence or apartments. There is a second building that is in a state of demolishment. With the wait for the nearby nursing home in years, not months, this land would be the perfect spot for a 75-100 bed, desperately needed nursing home. All the residents' rooms could be facing the river ensuring a scenic view (not overlooking a parking lot) and there could be a pathway garden along the river where the residents stroll and sit under the tree canopy. With all necessary amenities nearby, foreign nursing home staff could also live on site in purpose built apartments. That's our idea, what's yours?
