About This Home

As of February 2023

Honey! Stop the Car! This charming, well-crafted board and batten log home’s style stands out and is sure to impress. If you appreciate the beauty of a rustic, yet chic home built with durable materials ready to withstand New England's weather, this is it!
The 1990 sf, 4-bedroom home is perfectly positioned on a 1.37 Acre lot, and set back from Route 80 just enough to have a larger than average front yard as well as an unforgettable level backyard for the best cookouts and entertaining. The 3-car garage at the end of the wide and long driveway is an added benefit, not only your vehicles, but also your recreational vehicles or boats. One of the bedrooms can be repurposed as a dynamic home office that leads to a massive second unfinished living room with high ceiling and a significant amount of storage space. You will be pleased with the quality workmanship from the solid wood floors to the wood boards on the walls. The wood beams accentuate the log home style charm. The kitchen cabinets are solid wood. The large cedar closets take this to another level in quality. The deck is easily accessible from a kitchen door. There are two open porches and an unfinished 984-sf dry basement with shelving and work bench. The air conditioning unit is newer but, not reflected on the property card. The property has well water and has a septic system in working order (new Septic Tank 12/19/22). One owner has owned this property & maintained it well.
