About This Home

As of June 2016

Unparalleled charm and character in this 1938 saltbox colonial with a stone wall that offers additional privacy to the lovely 1.58 acres. Arched doorways lead to an impressive living room with cathedral ceiling, huge floor-to-ceiling window and fireplace, an unexpected delight. 1930’s architecture carries throughout the formal dining room, office and family room/4th BR with full bath. The renovated white kitchen has high-end appliances, marble counters, farmhouse-style sink and separate eating area. The master bedroom with bath is on the first floor and there are two upstairs bedrooms. French doors lead to an amazing bi-level terrace, complete with outdoor kitchen. All of this in a walk to train and town location.
