Come home to this beautiful light-filled farmhouse in the desirable Tree Streets neighborhood, with the Retreat Woods practically out the back door.  Just 1/2 mile to downtown & I-91 and 1 mile to the farmer's market, this house couldn't be more conveniently located- a perfect blend of nature access and in-town living. Built circa 1880, this delightful home has been lovingly updated and is move-in ready. Upstairs is a master bedroom with french doors to a sitting room that looks out to the woods, a second bedroom with a skylight, plus a full bath with built-ins and a soaking tub. The first floor has a bright & spacious kitchen, open-concept living/dining room, office/den with a private entrance, a full bathroom with laundry, and another bedroom/study with extensive built-ins. There are hardwood floors throughout the home, 3 covered porches, a slate roof, and detached 2-car garage with a full second story. Extensive edible landscaping in the front includes mature fruit trees, berries & grapes, plus perennial & annual flowers, herbs & vegetables. The backyard, originally designed by Gordon Hayward, features well-established perennial woodland gardens and multi-level stonework. Closer to the house there is a stone patio and a new landscaping opportunity where a large tree was recently removed. We look forward to seeing you soon!  Owner is accepting back-up offers.
