Farmhouse also boasts wide plank pine floors, exposed antique wooden beams, interior stone floor/wall breakfast nook, a butler’s pantry, 2 laundry rooms and an attached cottage that would make a wonderful in-law apartment. Current owners use the attached in-law cottage as an Airbnb, which will only be viewed on 2nd showing. Newer roof (2016), windows and updated plumbing & electrical/fixtures throughout. This property borders West River Condominiums and shares their septic, for a small monthly fee of $231 which includes septic, trash and use of pool. However the new owner may choose to reduce the monthly fee if they do not want to use the trash or pool. Owner/Agent
