It’s rare to find a home that offers both beauty and heart, but this thoughtfully renovated Colonial on over 2 acres does just that. Full of charm, warmth, and natural light, it features an open kitchen with sweeping field views, a welcoming living room with a new wood stove, a family room that glows on sunny days, and stylish office that makes working from home a joy! Upstairs are three generous bedrooms and a spacious primary featuring an en-suite bath with soaking tub. With abundant storage throughout--including pantry, large closets (2 walk-ins), basement and attic --it’s ideal for everyday living. Step outside to a fenced yard, firepit, and direct access to over 120 acres of conservation land, ponds, and a lavender field. Nearby Hovey's Pond offers ice skating in the winter, fishing in the summertime, and trails to hike and spot deer and other wildlife year-round. Located near top schools, local farms, shops, and just 25 minutes to Newburyport. A truly special place to call home.

SELLER INSTALLING BRAND NEW SEPTIC SYSTEM!! This one hundred year old house with gorgeous view is in need of rejuvenation!! Seems best for CONTRACTORS or handy "DIYers." Much of the home needs renovation, but quite a bit has been maintained or updated. Furnace is about 15 years old, original house has steam heat, the addition has forced hot water. Updated electric to 200amps. Addition of family room with wood burning stove and two bedrooms in 1990. Vinyl siding in 2000. Large screen porch was added in 2001. The home sits on 2 acres, but is further surrounded by many picturesque fields and forests of conservation land. This home offers a peaceful rural setting, yet has shops and restaurants less than a 5 minute drive on away on 133 in North Andover. Nason's Stone House Farm store is across the street & Benson’s Ice Cream is around the bend! Bring this lovely colonial back to life & to its fullest potential! Utility/town easement on lot.
