If you have been looking for the perfect blend of new and old, history and modern updates, the “Ash House'' could be your next home.

Boasting original wide pine floorboards, antique hardware, doors & stone, the home also has a built-in corner hutch with scalloped shelves, a sought after detail from the time period. The first floor has a spacious eat-in kitchen complete with exposed beams, dining room, mudroom, 3/4 bath with laundry, living room and family room/study. The second floor features the gorgeous master bedroom with ensuite bath and 2 other spacious ensuite bedrooms.
