Tons of character in this delightful three bedroom Cape. Lots of old world charm with some modern updates including a great screened porch overlooking the back yard. Nice built-ins, large kitchen pantry, four fireplaces, master bedroom with attached bathroom, sunny living spaces. The home and detached garage sit on one side of Payson Road, and there is a large post and beam barn that conveys with the property on the other side of Payson Road. Upgraded systems, metal roof on part of the house, beautiful gardens, quiet county road. This is a lovely home.
