Redfin agents who toured

1877 farmhouse in need of exterior and interior work. Being sold "as is" so come with your vision. The plot is long and narrow, encompassing nearly 1/4 acre. Exterior wood shingles, wood trim, and window frames need attention. North side, roof,...
gutters, and chimney have vines growing on them. Rear wall field-stone foundation in basement is covered in plastic. Gas Burnham furnace is approximately 6 years. Hot Water tank looks to be from 2005. There is still an unused oil tank in basement. 100 amp older electric circuit breaker. Kitchen has gas stove, cracked tile flooring, picture window, and oak cabinets, and some pine wood paneling on rear wall. Dining room has access to back yard. Living room has large stone hearth fireplace. Fir floors throughout. Master bedroom has cathedral ceiling with skylight. Good central location and expansive plot.
