Steel pilingsHot water baseboardsUpdated electric

Exceptional location and beautifully maintained. This property is one of the secluded gems of Petersham. The land is 98 acres with access roads, Fever Brook and Camel's Hump pond. Development rights for 85 acres were sold to the state in 2002 to protect the Quabbin Reservoir, details are an attached document. 13 acres remain unrestricted and has the house, pool, out buildings and cleared view to the pond. Origin of the house is a simple 1957 camp constructed by local builder for personal use. Purchased by current owner in 1963. Superb place for gathering with family with 4 good sized bedrooms and 3 full baths (plus an outdoor shower) and massive 3 season room. Has updated electric with 100 amp circuit breakers, oil fired boiler with hot water baseboards in all but 3 season room. Building is on stone posts and steel pilings with crawl space. Septic is functioning but non-compliant old style that buyer will have responsibility to update to suit their needs and use. Includes contents.
