This tastefully renovated antique farmhouse borders the Saw Mill River, has pastoral views, and is within walking distance of Montague center. Enjoy the river from the lovely wrap-around porch or drift off to sleep to babbling river sounds. Tucked gently into the landscape the house affords a sense of privacy and is reminiscent of another time. Though renovated, the interior is a pleasing mix of old and new. The original wood floors have been brought back to life and the newer cherry kitchen cabinetry modernizes the home. A large claw-foot soaking tub and built-in china cabinet reflect the original period of this home. The master bedroom and living room (with soapstone woodstove) are spacious by today's standards and the formal dining room exudes the warmth of a home well loved. The land offers space for gardening, flowering shrubs, bees, & chickens. Property is complete with an attached insulated studio, outdoor workshop with electricity, and 90' pole barn...all waiting, just for you
