About This Home

As of October 2023

Such an incredible property with several outbuildings spread out on 16.5 +/- acres that is accessed down a winding private driveway lined with birch trees leading to a bridge over Gunner's Brook. The three-bedroom, two-bathroom 2074 +/- finished sq ft ranch home includes a partially finished walkout basement and second kitchen, rec room, office space, and wood stove. The main level has a beautiful spacious kitchen with an open floor plan to a view of an incredible unique sunroom with a wall of windows and wood beams. A porch is located off of the sunroom with a view of the landscaped yard. On the other side of the kitchen is the formal dining room with a second door do the deck. The original oversized two car garage was converted decades ago into a living room with a bar, dining area, tv viewing area, and brick hearth with a wood stove. An attached walk-through woodshed makes for easy access to replenish the stove. Under the bar is an old set of stairs to the basement that were covered up. The first floor continues with three bedrooms and a full bathroom. The well kept landscaped yard leads to a spring fed pond with dozens of bright goldfish that survive winters. Outbuildings include attached woodshed, barn with garage door and storage above, shed, two car heated garage, and a pole barn with a drive through on one side. A standing seam is the best kind you can have on a home and it's everywhere! This house is conveniently located, but very private. Great location.
