Description

With some energy and vision, this c. 1915 cottage on 4.49 acres could be a sweet retreat! Knotty pine and exposed brick on the main level, first floor bath with laundry, mudroom entry. An enclosed porch could easily become a part of the main living area with some work and there is a covered porch looking onto the beautiful back yard. Large detached barn/garage. The setting is lovely with large maples, lilacs as well as lawn space for gardening or play. Roof needs replacement and heating system works...With some energy and vision, this c. 1915 cottage on 4.49 acres could be a sweet retreat! Knotty pine and exposed brick on the main level, first floor bath with laundry, mudroom entry. An enclosed porch could easily become a part of the main living area with some work and there is a covered porch looking onto the beautiful back yard. Large detached barn/garage. The setting is lovely with large maples, lilacs as well as lawn space for gardening or play. Roof needs replacement and heating system works but will most likely need replacing as well. Will not qualify for most low down payment loan programs.
