The mature perennials bed await a gardeners gentle touch, and the views are captivating through seasoned Maples. The house has stood for over 200 years and will likely stand 200 more, and rumor in town has it that this house may have been site to a portion of Shays Rebellion. Interior is ready for renovations since the ground work has been laid with updated windows, siding, roof, boiler, and electrical. There is even room for a home office or potentially a Master Suite with attractive views of the countryside and mountains. Its even on the school bus route.
