"ENGLISH COTTAGE" and GARDENS on highly-coveted Kent Street in Concord's West End.  First time on the market in over a decade.  A cedar-shake clad bungalow built in 1910 and set off away from the road, the home is a private oasis yet so close to downtown.  The home features hardwood floors throughout, working fireplace, built-ins, one bath with an original claw-foot tub, and three bedrooms. A porch with large screened windows is very welcome in the summer.  The long circular drive comfortably fits a number of vehicles.  A gardener's paradise, the property features numerous formal gardens built over the last decade and hundreds of perennials and trees as well as two "kitchen gardens" stocked with vegetables ready for your summer grilling and salads.  Old and stately trees provide shade and privacy on three sides and a forested area sees the occasional deer and even bald eagles.  The over-sized lot would be ideal for entertaining.  The home has comfortably hosted presidential candidates and a variety of state and federal office-holders in the backyard over the years.  The brick terrace is perfect for barbecues and outdoor dining.  The perfect home for a Concord Hospital or St. Paul's School employee (both within a mile) a young family, or folks seeking to down-size. Showings begin with an open house Saturday, June 26 at 10:00am-12:00pm and Sunday  11:00am-1:00pm.
