Public Remarks: Beautiful 14 acre site with mature landscaping on one of the most desirable roads in Alford. The property has access to a lovely stretch of the Alford Brook at the back of the parcel. The home, built in 1980, is well set back from the road. The first floor includes a spacious sunroom with radiant heat, 3/4 bath, kitchen, living/dining and a small primary bedroom with ensuite bath - all with sliding doors that open to the graceful back yard. The second floor has two additional bedrooms and a shared bath. Two car garage and an adjacent screened porch complete the offering. Plenty of room for expansion and potential for an additional structure.

Set on one of the prettiest pieces of Alford land we have seen recently, this sun-filled, cheerful, contemporary cape is an ideal getaway, and has room for ample expansion. The property consists of 14+ acres of level, open land with exquisite plantings and mature specimen trees, all nestled up against the delightful babbling Alford Brook. Extensive decks and patios, accessed by large sliding doors, connect the outdoors with the home's graceful interior. A heated in-ground pool provides an additional respite. Inside, enjoy one-level living via a large family room with radiant heat stone floors, a lovely living room, screened porch, and a first floor master suite - and from each, the beautiful grounds are just a step outside. Potential for a second home on the rear lot, by the brook!
