This beautiful antique cape farm house with a rustic barn in a lovely, rural neighborhood setting is a must see! The home features two connecting bedrooms downstairs next to a full bathroom and two bedrooms upstairs both charming with lower headroom, typical of a home of this period. Both the living room and dining room are warm and inviting with hardwood floors, a fireplace, great light and plenty of room for family gatherings. A large bonus room in the ell between the mudroom and garage is ready for your finishing touch. Enjoy the views from the three season sunroom overlooking the picturesque 6.4 acres of woods, rock walls, a rolling field, apple trees, grape vines and garden beds. The large two car garage opens into the two story barn with ample storage and workspace area. There is wonderful potential for farming, horses, gardening, and much more! The Springvale location is wonderfully rural but convenient, only 5 to 10 minutes to shopping areas, restaurants, schools and more.
