About This Property

The essence of town and country, this classic New England farmhouse has been beautifully restored to enable carefree enjoyment of the property's rambling 1+ acre lot and gloriously private setting abutting 75-acre wildlife sanctuary and across from Mass Audubon-owned fields. The open and bright interior, with hardwood floors, high ceilings, custom built-in bookcases and pantry, invites intimate family gathering or elegant entertaining. The kitchen sparkles with pressed tin tile backsplash, exposed brick and flat panel radiator, while an adjoining sunny dining area opens to expansive deck with turnbuckle cable railing. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms offer respite and inspiration, one with a private deck with lovely wrought iron railing that is perfect for reading, birdwatching or listening to peepers. The professionally landscaped grounds provide a wealth of places for rest or recreation, including an iconic hanging swing and graveled clearing for gathering around the fire pit.
