This 1851 expanded cape has charm and character with an old-world country home feel. The interior of the home has exposed beams and wood floors throughout. The sitting room focal point is a floor-to-ceiling wood-burning brick fireplace. The large first-floor bedroom is light and sun-filled and opens to the 2 room spa-like bathroom! Clawfoot tub, additional shower stall, full-sized hot tub- all with windows facing the large and private backyard. 3 additional bedrooms, full bath, and bonus room on the 2nd floor. The yard boasts many mature fruit trees, flowering/ornamental landscaping, stonework, and wonderful views. Approximately 3 wooded acres behind creating a nice private feel with a good buffer between the backyard and neighboring properties. This home will need some TLC including some septic ( 2022 inspection completed) and plumbing work to repair some frozen pipes and is priced accordingly and sold "as is'.
