Description

Stately 2 1/2 story home on .85 acre lot 1 mile to Wallis Sands Beach. This home has been in the owners family for over 80 years. Lovely maple floors, high ceilings, gracious foyer, two built-in China cabinets in the formal dining room. The 3 bedrooms have nice large closets. 2nd floor bath was being renovated so tub removed, ready for the new owner to take over. We love the walk-up attic. Here you can see the solid construction of this period home. Enclosed porch is so New England, back 3 season...Stately 2 1/2 story home on .85 acre lot 1 mile to Wallis Sands Beach. This home has been in the owners family for over 80 years. Lovely maple floors, high ceilings, gracious foyer, two built-in China cabinets in the formal dining room. The 3 bedrooms have nice large closets. 2nd floor bath was being renovated so tub removed, ready for the new owner to take over. We love the walk-up attic. Here you can see the solid construction of this period home. Enclosed porch is so New England, back 3 season room has a full basement under so easy to convert to year round. Detached 2 car garage with walk-up 2nd floor seems more like a small barn. Back tool shed needs work. The roof is still the original slate on the home. Seller wants buyers to know it’s time to install a new septic system. This is a real home.
