Have you dreamed of moving to the countryside? Here is your chance to own 13 pristine acres in Townsend. The parcel abuts a State Forest and wildlife sightings are not unusual. The spacious home is nicely set back from the road and neighbors, and it has great natural lighting. The highlight is the recently remodeled custom gourmet kitchen with an island, stainless steel appliances and beautiful quartz counters. The open floor plan is designed for entertaining. There are 4 bedrooms, and the room labeled as an office could easily be used as a bedroom or converted into a master suite. There is also the potential to create an in-law space with a separate entrance. The finished basement offers additional living space and lots of storage. The screened in patio is great to relax in the evening and listen to the birds. Last year the owner installed solar panels and so far they have received credits every month from the utility company. Showings begin at the open house on August 17.
