Land is in a conservation easement to protect high-quality natural areas while maintaining a space for a landowner to reside on and conduct homestead or other small-scale agricultural operations. The Property is known as the Rinehart Conservation Easement and is a 20.6-acre property put in place to limit development and disturbance of the property's high-quality natural areas while maintaining a gorgeous retreat for a landowner to reside on and conduct homestead or other small-scale agricultural operations. There is a 2.42-acre building envelope surveyed around the existing house and driveway. Existing and future structures will be largely limited to this area, along with other residential infrastructure and uses. One residential structure is permitted in this envelope. The driveway also runs through the building envelope. Auxiliary structures can be erected, as long as total impervious surface does not exceed one acre. There is also an approximately 6.5-acre moderately restricted area, where a landowner can conduct homestead and small-scale agricultural activities. This area is primarily lower quality habitat, such planted pines and dense thickets of invasive shrub species. Landowners would be able to clear land to conduct agricultural activities such as but not limited to grazing livestock, raising crops, and placement of one 500-sq.-foot agricultural structure. A landowner could also conduct ecological restoration on this portion of the property or install a natural-cover food plot for wildlife. The east end of the property, approximately 11 acres consists of higher-quality natural area and will be the most restricted area. This gorgeous back woods will be a purchaser's haven to enjoy forest bathing through rolling hills down to a wetland with a creek flowing through it. The landowner will be able to passively recreate and create earthen trails, tap trees for maple syrup, hunt, and conduct commercial forest management or restoration with an approved plan. Other uses may be allowable dependent on final drafting and conservation easement interpretation at the time of the request. See attached survey.
