First time available in 80 years! This Howard Brothers Colonial was built with quality in 1940 and has been in the same family since new. The property has a lot of privacy and abuts a beautiful meadow. There is a master bedroom on the first floor with master bath and walk-in closet, and 3 additional bedrooms on the second floor. This house has been well loved and used over its life, and now it is the time to pass it on to someone who can bring it back to its former glory. The boiler, windows, and roof are about 15 years old, but the electrical and plumbing are original. The house is on a cess pool system, and may need to be hooked up to public sewerage. The property feels solid, and is said to have good bones. To be sold as-is.
