Welcome to this adorable circa 1880 saltbox style home! Situated in a very private setting on 11.2 acres in picturesque Washington County! The home includes 2BR/1 full bath (2nd bedroom is smaller, would make a great office). Features: updates to kitchen, gorgeous exposed beams, 1 car attached garage and 2 artesian wells. Unfinished room off the back could easily be finished for more space! There is a stream that runs through the property. You will love the outbuilding which currently serves as a ''man-cave'' but has a lot of potential for many things! Hartford Schools. SLIC internet available in area (a HUGE bonus!) No cable. Sold as-is. SELLER JUST INSTALLED A GAS DIRECT VENTED RINNAI HEATER IN THE LIVING ROOM. Also has a coal stove in the basement.
Little 'ole saltbox set nicely back from the road on 11.2 acres of land with 760 ft. of road frontage. Pleasant setting with a babbling brook, spring fed pond-site, nice plantings and a mix of open and wooded land. Teeming with potential, this home needs TLC to bring back its luster.
