The perfect combination of town and country, situated in the center of Holden, yet the last house on a quiet neighborhood road providing unapparelled privacy in a convenient walk to town location with nearly two acres of land. This truly delightful property is surrounded by a" ring" of mature trees, shade trees, and forest. The traditional four-bedroom New England craftsman style home has hardwood flooring throughout, with many built-in features as well as the benefit of a recent addition which includes a primary bedroom with its own scrumptious bath and walk-in closet, a new mudroom, laundry room, half bath and two-car garage. The sun filled kitchen was professionally designed and renovated in 2024. This is a luminous home, with banks of south-facing windows that help to bring the outside, "in" to enjoy four seasons of natural light while overlooking the private grounds with its many perennial plantings, frog pond, and large private back deck for outside relaxation and entertaining.
