Have your heart set on a cozy cottage by the river? This diamond in the rough, framed by two mature cedars out front, has benefited from many updates & has potential to be so much more. It offers a completely open floor plan on the 1st level & spacious 2nd level w 2 bedrooms separated by a den that opens to a hall area & river facing porch..The upstairs bath is 3/4 & it's adjacent to the larger bedroom at the front of the home. The back bedroom offers a generous closet area that could accomodate a laundry pair. The irregular lot shape extends well beyond the back fence aside of the rear abutters' driveway out to Cottage Rd. Please see plan for details. Seller has engineering plan for new septic by local engineer. What appears to be a garage is more of a work shop or storage area but w some work it could be made into a proper garage. Home is ready for immediate sale. Please contact listing broker for particulars. Also please do not enter or walk property without listing broker present.
This is a Cottage style home which has had additions over the decades. It is in need of a lot of work, but is situated in a beautiful neighborhood and has potential to be a very nice property.
