For sale: Historic stone dairy building with great potential in Järvamaa, Abaja village.
A former dairy building requiring thorough renovation is located on a spacious, heavily vegetated property. This is a building with a strong stone construction, an interesting history, and versatile potential for use.
Originally, production activities took place on the first floor of the building, while the second floor was used as living quarters. Thanks to the existing room layout and the building's volume, the property is suitable for conversion during renovation into a distinctive country home, a residence combined with work or studio spaces, an accommodation or small business building, or another custom solution. The possibilities for changing the land's intended use should be clarified with the local municipality.
The building requires thorough renovation, which gives the new owner the opportunity to design the entire solution according to their needs and taste.

The property has excellent access from a public road.
