About This Home

As of December 2012

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. Beautifully preserved 1834 farmhouse with hardwood floors (living room recently refinished), nooks & built-ins and some detailed hardware. A newer natural gas system, 2002 roof, a newer woodstove and many rooms freshly painted. Adorable 676 sf apartment above garage. Current tenant pays $700 per month to include utilities. Perfect to keep as rental to help with expenses or for an in-law apartment, guest house or for those adult kids that need to come home. Owner occupied with rental. Freshly painted to include an historical blue that brings out the beauty of the hardwood floors. An added woodstove, bright tiled sunroom, oversized deck, barn and a plush yard complete this wonderful property.
