Description

Distinguished circa-1880 farmhouse offering five bedrooms and a blend of period craftsmanship and modern livability.

Many opportunities for tasteful updates, allowing the next owner to further enhance and personalize this remarkable home. Offered partially furnished. New roof in 2025.
