    What's special

    Private tree-lined lotPristine finishesElegant wide crown mouldingClassic wainscotingSun-filled wraparound sunroomHardwood floorsPeriod trim
    Just steps from the West River and nestled on a private, tree-lined lot, this 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath century farmhouse seamlessly blends timeless character with meaningful updates, including a new roof, heat pumps, and a newer septic system. Impeccably maintained throughout, the home radiates pride of ownership, with pristine finishes and meticulous attention to every detail. Inside, elegant wide crown moulding, classic wainscoting, and a wood-burning fireplace with a brick surround anchor the spacious main living area. The sun-filled wraparound sunroom doubles as a home office, offering sweeping river and field views. Upstairs, a central staircase leads to four bedrooms, each adorned with hardwood floors and period trim.A standout feature is the 9-year-old addition, complete with its own eat-in kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and living room that opens onto a private deck—ideal as a turnkey in-law suite, guest space, or Airbnb unit, with ramp access for easy entry. The unfinished basement provides a woodshop, laundry hookups, and ample storage, while two more full bathrooms complete the main house. Outside, the lawn gently slopes to the water’s edge, where the West River offers exceptional fishing just minutes away from your back door—perfect for casting a line before breakfast or after work. Mature trees, a fire pit, and a wraparound deck create inviting outdoor living spaces. For the handyman, hobbyist, or collector, the detached triple-bay garage is a dream: spacious and ideal for vehicles, toys, tools, or a full workshop setup. Tucked at the end of a peaceful country lane with sweeping farmland and river views, this property delivers move-in-ready systems, income potential, and genuine rural privacy for anglers and nature lovers alike—with the added convenience of a P-8 school and high school just five minutes away.
