About This Home

As of May 2013

Location!Location!Location!!!Lovely country home set well back from road. Set on knoll amid mature trees and picturesque perennial gardens. Pond on property is a favorite stop over for migrating water fowl! Home was constructed by a master builder for his family to enjoy; excellent craftmanship throughout! Large thermal windows provide bright natural light. Each wide pine floor board was individually selected by the builder/owner.Beautiful views of pond and meadow from inviting front porch. Bring your own snacks! Wood stoves provide warmth and economy for this well insulated home! Workshop currently located in basement. The solidly built barn can be used for many purposes; animals, storage of vehicles, tractors, etc. The loft may be for hay or a play room or crafts...use your imagination! This wonderful home is waiting for its next family to settle in and experience the joys of country living. Never previously listed. One owner!
