About This Home

As of October 2025

Constructed in the 1690s by Joseph Alden, son of Mayflower passenger John Alden, and later expanded by Isaac Johnson, this treasured colonial has remained in the care of Johnson’s descendants for nearly 300 years. Nestled on 2.41 acres in the town’s East End, this property offers a truly unique blend of legacy and livability. Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms, 2 full bath, and a spacious layout that seamlessly marries historic charm with modern comforts. Period details like wide-plank floors, feathered paneling, multiple fireplaces, including one with a beehive oven, and exposed beams reflect the craftsmanship of early New England. Meanwhile, a tastefully renovated kitchen, updated bathrooms, and a sun-filled family room bring ease and warmth to daily living. Outside, enjoy a blooming yard and an oversized detached garage with solar panels and a spacious workshop, perfect for hobbies or extra storage. This home is a perfect blend of charm and comfort.
