Distinguished circa-1880 farmhouse offering five bedrooms and a blend of period craftsmanship and modern livability. Rich in character, the home featuring original tin ceilings and finely detailed woodwork throughout. The grounds are equally compelling, featuring a classic three-story barn, expansive decks, and substantial fenced yard space. An income-producing studio apartment (currently rented month to month) provides added versatility and investment appeal. Ideally situated within walking distance to the park and school, and just moments from residents only, Bond Beach on Lake Opechee, this property presents a rare opportunity to enjoy quintessential New England living with convenience and charm. Many opportunities for tasteful updates, allowing the next owner to further enhance and personalize this remarkable home. Offered partially furnished. New roof in 2025. Showings begin at open house on Sunday, April 12th from 11AM to 1PM.
