A rare opportunity. Located on Pill Hill, this carriage house was originally built in 1869 and remodeled in 1926 and 1940. The living space is charming and bright, and there is a garden. Other features include a walk-up attic with approximately 759 sf, a walk-out basement room, and a two-car garage. This property is nestled at end of it's own long driveway and has wonderful potential.
