Very nice home with one loft bedroom , nice open floor plan, eat in kitchen with lots of natural light. Hardwood floors, full bath with laundry, great if you are looking to down size or looking for less work to do, a condo alternative, then here it is, great view of the water and water access to enjoy the pond to do water activities like kyak or just swim. Has propane heat and electric for back up and propane furnace is new and so the drilled well is newer also. Close to RI.
