Rare 17.1-Acre Mixed-Use Farm and Commercial Property for Sale in Andover, Connecticut
What happens when commercial functionality, agricultural acreage, Route 6 visibility, and rural New England character come together in one property?
You get a rare opportunity like this.
This unique Andover real estate offering combines 11 Bunker Hill Road with a second Route 6 parcel, creating a total of approximately 17.1 acres. The property offers direct Route 6 access, two large parking areas, an existing commercial building, established tree farm acreage, and land that mostly abuts the Hop River.
Whether you are an owner-user, agricultural operator, contractor, nursery or landscape business, investor, or entrepreneur with a creative concept, this property deserves a closer look.
A Unique Combination of Land, Visibility, and Improvements
Finding commercial property with substantial acreage can be challenging. Finding one that also offers Route 6 access, existing buildings, parking, cleared work areas, agricultural utility, and natural surroundings is even more unusual.
The property’s existing building contains approximately 4,565 gross square feet and provides a flexible combination of:
Office space
Garage and warehouse areas
Approximately 15-foot ceiling height
Truck loading dock
Cleared work and storage areas
Two large parking areas
Pavilion and patio space
These features may allow a future owner to operate a business while also taking advantage of the surrounding acreage.
Instead of starting with vacant land and building everything from the ground up, a buyer has an existing foundation from which to evaluate and develop a vision, subject to due diligence and the necessary approvals.
Established Tree Farm Acreage
One of the most distinctive aspects of this offering is its established tree farm acreage.
This agricultural component creates possibilities for a nursery, landscaping company, tree farm, agricultural operator, farm stand, or related farm-to-retail concept. A buyer may also see an opportunity to combine agricultural production with a complementary business use.
The acreage, cleared areas, pavilion, patio, parking, and existing building are all being offered together. That combination may appeal to buyers seeking more than a traditional commercial building or standalone parcel of land.
Potential Business and Agricultural Uses
The property is currently identified with land-use classification 037: Mixed Use—Primary Commercial & Agriculture, reflecting its existing blend of business and farm utility.
Depending on a buyer’s plans and the required approvals, potential concepts may include:
Tree farm or agricultural operation
Nursery or landscaping business
Wayside farm stand
Agricultural sales and retail
Farm-to-retail operation
Contractor or service-business headquarters
Office and warehouse use
Storage or distribution operation
Agritourism destination
Event-forward farm concept
Owner-user commercial facility
Mixed-use investment opportunity
The real value may be in the flexibility. One buyer may focus on agricultural production, while another may see a base for a contracting, landscaping, storage, or distribution business. Someone else may envision a destination-oriented farm concept incorporating retail, events, education, or seasonal activities.
All proposed uses should be independently verified by the buyer and will remain subject to zoning, wetlands, inland-watercourse regulations, and Town approvals.
Direct Route 6 Access and Visibility
Access and visibility can play an important role in the success of many commercial and agricultural businesses.
The inclusion of the second Route 6 parcel provides direct access to a major local travel corridor. This may be especially valuable for a business that depends on customer awareness, equipment access, deliveries, employees, or the movement of materials.
At the same time, the acreage provides the space and rural character that are difficult to find with a typical roadside commercial property.
That balance—visibility in the front and natural surroundings beyond—is what makes this offering stand out.
Land Abutting the Hop River
Much of the property abuts the Hop River, adding another layer of natural New England character.
For some buyers, the river and surrounding landscape may enhance the property’s identity, atmosphere, or potential appeal as an agricultural, agritourism, or destination-oriented operation.
Any development or change in use near the river, wetlands, or inland watercourses will require careful investigation. Buyers should consult the appropriate professionals and municipal authorities before making plans based on a particular use.
Who Could Benefit From This Property?
This opportunity may be a strong fit for:
A nursery or landscaping company needing land, parking, office space, and equipment storage
A contractor seeking warehouse space, a truck dock, cleared work areas, and Route 6 access
An agricultural operator interested in established tree farm acreage
An entrepreneur developing a farm-to-retail or agritourism concept
An owner-user looking to combine operations, storage, and administration at one location
An investor searching for a property with multiple potential income-producing components
A business owner who has outgrown a smaller commercial property and needs room for future expansion
The property may also appeal to someone who values rural character but still needs commercial access and infrastructure.
One Complete Andover Opportunity
The land, existing building, parking areas, cleared work areas, pavilion, patio, and established tree farm are being offered together as one unique property.
Opportunities with this combination of acreage, existing improvements, direct Route 6 access, commercial utility, agricultural character, and natural surroundings do not become available often.
The right buyer may see more than a building or a piece of land. They may see the opportunity to bring an entire business vision together in one location.
