Description

Modest interior, modest exterior, and modest price to match but there is nothing modest about the feel of warmth and cheer in this New England farmhouse! Warm and inviting, the eat-in kitchen is farmhouse-style, plain and plenty - lots of cupboard and counter space as well as room for gathering 'round the kitchen table. The room directly off of this can be used as a dining room, this seller doesn't happen to need that, or you can use it as an office or den. From here is the comfortable and spacious...Modest interior, modest exterior, and modest price to match but there is nothing modest about the feel of warmth and cheer in this New England farmhouse! Warm and inviting, the eat-in kitchen is farmhouse-style, plain and plenty - lots of cupboard and counter space as well as room for gathering 'round the kitchen table. The room directly off of this can be used as a dining room, this seller doesn't happen to need that, or you can use it as an office or den. From here is the comfortable and spacious living room. There is also a 1st floor bedroom, and the full bath with laundry. So easy, 1st floor living! The 2nd floor offers 2 more bedrooms and two attic rooms, perfect for easy-to-access dry, walk-in storage. The mudroom/entry offers an L-shaped enclosed porch, great for starting seedlings for the garden out back, or hanging your Wellies to dry. The veggie patch out back has a water line run to it, so no long hose needed. No excuses not to irrigate! Of course the field views from the back yard are mighty distracting, you might miss pulling a weed or two! The Amish shed nearby is great for storing tools and tires! The side yard is really so wonderful. Mature trees create a canopy of privacy. The seller enjoyed the fire pit and there is so much space for yard games. You could also add chickens and other farm critters on the 1.88 acres, you're in the right zone! A little history: the ''newer'' section was built in 1888, while the 2nd half of the home is older and was moved from another farm and attached (full foundation). Years ago, when they did this, they set the home on logs and rolled them front-to-back as the house moved down the road, just picture it! The seller has done a good job keeping up with the mechanics: recapped/lined chimney, new metal roof, and a new heat pump for heat & air conditioning. Bring your own vision. This sturdy farmhouse is move-in ready and still priced to make it affordable for you to add your own touches.
