Large, contiguous tracts with development potential are becoming increasingly difficult to find in southeastern New Hampshire. Consisting of two adjoining parcels totaling approximately 200 acres, this exceptional property combines scale, location, and flexibility just a short drive from Dover, Rochester, and the Seacoast. The land is the true centerpiece. Approximately 640 feet of road frontage, mostly level terrain, an established trail network, and substantial Cocheco River frontage create an opportunity that is increasingly rare in today's market. While the majority of the property is wooded, approximately ten acres of former fields could be reclaimed for agriculture, open space, or other future uses. Located within Farmington's Rural Residential district, the property may support subdivision or cluster development potential, subject to Town approvals and buyer due diligence. Also located on the property is an approximately 2,558-square-foot farmhouse built in 1850. The home requires substantial renovation but appears structurally sound and retains the character expected of its era, including exposed beams and multiple fireplaces that should be inspected prior to use. Existing infrastructure includes a drilled well, private septic system, forced hot air heating, and a detached garage, providing a foundation for restoration or incorporation into future plans. Whether your vision is creating a thoughtfully planned residential development, establishing a private estate, investing in one of the region's remaining large landholdings, or restoring a classic New England farmhouse surrounded by 200 acres, this property offers uncommon flexibility. Properties of this size, with extensive river frontage, existing infrastructure, and convenient access to one of New Hampshire's fastest-growing regions, rarely become available. Schedule your private showing and experience the possibilities firsthand.

The acreage provides a rare sense of seclusion, while the neighborhood itself is among Dover's most exclusive residential enclaves, known for its estate-quality homes and peaceful surroundings.Few properties offer the combination of deep-water access, substantial acreage, privacy, and proximity to the Seacoast's most desirable destinations. Whether departing by boat for an afternoon on the Atlantic, entertaining against a backdrop of river views, or simply enjoying the tranquility of the setting, this is a property that delivers an exceptional waterfront lifestyle. A rare offering where land, water, and location come together in a way that is seldom available and nearly impossible to replicate.
