Some properties you walk through. This one, you just have to stop and stay a while. Step inside: the great room rises overhead in a lattice of hand-hewn timber trusses, anchored by a floor-to-ceiling white brick fireplace. Timeless craftsmanship, warm and modern. The renovated kitchen delivers marble counters, white cabinetry, brass hardware, Bosch stainless appliances, and a sunshine-filled bay-window breakfast nook. New tile in the entry, fresh paint inside and out, and 5 fireplaces (1 propane, 4 wood-burning, professionally cleaned) keep winter cozy. The primary suite has its own fireplace and a walk-in closet the size of a small bedroom. A main-level bedroom opens to the deck, and the finished lower level adds a rec room, gym, and office. Now the part that makes the spreadsheet smile: over $200,000 in documented updates since 2024. New GAF architectural roof, owned 11.5 kW solar that leaves little more than a small monthly grid fee, new heat pump system with central air, remodeled baths with Kohler fixtures, chimney repointed, crowned, and capped, and a freshly serviced septic. The big-ticket items are done. Receipts available. Out back, a fenced 10-foot-deep in-ground pool with a brand new cover and equipment included sits below the wide deck. Follow the path down to the brook, deep enough to wade in and cast a line, while you bathe in the nature. Or, head over to nearby Nipmuck Trail and hike all the way to Wolf Rock. Oh, you want downtown? That's just a 5 drive away.
