A perfectly situated cape in a quiet area of Northfield and close to all major routes - an easy drive to Northampton, Amherst, Brattleboro or Keene. This home is nestled on almost 2 acres of land that offers a lot of privacy without being isolated. There are five bedrooms that provide flexibility in the living space. Use one for an office, or use the second floor space for retreat including a half bath. The built-ins in the kitchen and some of the bedrooms add character, and the wood floors add warmth. In the winter, enjoy a fire in the main living room. The second living area, separate from the rest of the house, offers a quiet annex, or a space where the kids can raise a ruckus without disturbing the rest of the household. The screened porch offers a cool, shady spot on humid August days and you can take in a great view of the neighborhood from the front deck. This home has a lot to offer in an ideal location to live in the country with an easy commute.
