Remember the days of a bygone era when wrap around porches with swings were the place for lemonade and conversation on a summer evening? Find those sweet moments again in this lovely home set back from the street amid grassy lawn and beautiful trees. It's hard to believe the hustle and bustle of town is just 10 miles away! The view from the back deck is truly picturesque with a hot tub available for relaxation. For the gardener, there are 5 apple trees, 2 cherry trees, a grapevine arbor, raspberry patch, rhubarb patch, and a vegetable garden area complete with compost bin. Inside, the spacious kitchen with bar seating is a great gathering space. The dining room overlooks the deck and vista beyond, and is open to the living room providing a nice flow for family gatherings and parties both inside and out. The lower level has a walk-out rec room with a coal stove, space for workout equipment and a separate office. Truly a wonderful home in the country ready for the next owner to love.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
