Set on nearly two acres, the grounds boast a large deck with a retractable awning, a 2-car portico, gardening shed, gazebo, and fenced gardens with established cherry, plum, and crabapple trees. Ideally located within walking distance of Thetford Elementary, Thetford Academy, Open Fields Private Elementary, and the Parish Players theatre.
