Charming century-old cottage, close to town, with nice original features. The 3 season porch with ceiling fan takes you to the freshly-painted living room, with a small working fireplace. Continue onto the dining room with pretty wainscoting details and a chandelier. Behind that is the well-equipped kitchen, with hickory cabinets, stainless steel appliances, quartz counters and a large pantry a few steps down. You can exit to the back yard from the kitchen, or continue around to the 2 bedrooms and bathroom. The whole home, including the attic, has wood floors. The bathroom even has a towel warmer for those chilly days! Up the steps to the attic is a large room - or 2 - which you can use for guests or as an office or crafts room. The skylight brings in great light, and little enclosed storage spaces line both walls. The oil burner is relatively new, and there's town water. The detached garage is long, but had only been used for 1 car. Alongside the home are 4 raised beds, where the owners grew a huge variety of veggies and flowers over their many years there. It's private and full of sun. The property behind the home is owned by Quiet Rein Farm, where horses are boarded and lessons given. On the other side of the home, they once had an above ground pool. This close-to-town cottage is a great starter or downsizing home.
