About This Home

As of August 2024

This brick colonial in the center of Plainfield was once the town's General Store. Today it is a comfortable 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home that has had numerous updates. The first floor, where the store once was, is still a large open room, with built in shelves, that holds great potential for any number of uses, along with a full kitchen and full bath. Maybe you're an artist looking for studio space? Maybe a fabulous work from home office? Maybe you need space for in-laws? The possibilities are endless. Upstairs, the second floor has a beautifully remodeled kitchen with Ashfield stone countertops and stainless-steel appliances, dining room, living room with fireplace, bedroom with fireplace and a lovely primary bath, an office with laundry and a half bath. Lovely pine floors throughout. The third floor has two bedrooms (tandem) and a 3/4 bath. Broadband is available. OFFER DEADLINE FRIDAY, JULY 19th at NOON. Highest +Best, No escalation clauses or letters.
