One lot line is a babbling brook. The natural wood beams throughout the home accentuate an open and fresh feel. The bright, airy kitchen with gas range and maple butcher block island is open to the breakfast nook and main living area, while dining and den/office areas maintain privacy. The first-level primary bedroom with en suite includes a large, recently-tiled walk-in dual-head shower and walk-in closet offering generous space to stretch and get ready for the day. The entire first-level wood floors were recently refinished. The front acres of this wooded parcel gently slope toward the rear, making the lower level bedrooms and spacious storage and workshop a walk-out to views of nature. Stained cedar clapboard exterior and metal roof match the New England environment. The 3-bay garage and main building are joined by a comfortable screened sitting area. This lovely home is set back approx. 200' from the road and enjoys the seclusion of being the last property on Lower Straw Road, a minute from the Concord town line, 25 miles to Boston-Manchester Regional Airport, a 3-minute drive to I-89 exit 3, and 8 miles to downtown Concord. Floor plans are digitally rendered; please conduct your own due diligence.
