Nestled in the heart of Bedford’s Historic Center, the Amos Cutler House is a true piece of living history. Built in 1835, this Colonial blends timeless charm with modern comfort. Just steps from local landmarks, schools, and community events, it offers both convenience and tranquility. The elegant arched entry welcomes you into a home rich with character—wide-pine floors, intricate woodwork, and four fireplaces, including one with a beehive oven in the original kitchen. Thoughtful updates include a renovated kitchen, updated baths, and newer systems. Details like built-ins, dual staircases, and a lovely porch add warmth and charm. Outside, a private backyard offers space for gardening, play, or future expansion and possibility of ADU. Ideally located, this home connects you to the best of Bedford living—history, community, and everyday ease.
