Across from Carter Pond, this wooded property offers water views of the pond, 1,016 feet of frontage on Carter Pond Road, and a beautiful natural setting of mature hardwoods, white pine, and hemlock. Power and internet service are available along the road. Classic New England stone walls divide portions of the land and line sections of the road frontage, adding character and history. Thoughtful paths have been carved throughout the property as potential future roads, with consideration given to the 1/10 rule for road construction. Petersham zoning requires 150 feet of frontage and 1.5 acres, offering potential flexibility for future planning. The property is surrounded by conserved land, including holdings of the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife and privately protected land under permanent conservation restrictions. Nearby Carter Pond and additional acreage over the Barre town line are owned by Carter Pond Company, originally formed in the 1920s as a fishing club and still maintained as private open space.
