Welcome to one of downtown Ashburnham's most elegant and versatile homes! This 1850s Greek revival is a remarkable combination of size, modern convenience, & old New England charm. Enter to find a beautiful staircase with dark-stained antique newel and rails. The downstairs hallway accesses two large bedrooms and sitting room with fireplace, and opens finally to a living area and spacious kitchen, the centerpiece of which is the 6-burner gas range flanked neatly between granite counter tops. Upstairs one finds much to love as well: a third bedroom with high ceilings & exposed beams, a full bath & a master bedroom with attached landing opening over the foyer. The upstairs kitchenette has a sink and could be a full kitchen if a range were to be added. A propane stove heats the 2nd floor & gives added charm to the vaulted living room. The driveway ends at the foot of a large, well-built barn. Walking distance to shops. Zoned for mixed use - family living, business, or both! Must be seen!
