Intown, antique cape with additions. Many fine features still intact, but modernized for comfortable living. Wonderful home built before 1800, as close as the deeds can read. Plaster walls, wonderful wood floors, natural gas, forced hot water furnace. Large 1 acre lot. Maintain for your own privacy and enjoyment, or take advantage of the V1 zoning with Freeport Village Overlay District to split off a separate lot with Design Review.
