About this home
Can be shown after 6/25/17. This beautifully renovated 1840’s farmhouse is conveniently located in historic Chester village. Over the past ten years every room and system of this vintage home has been improved, replaced or updated. Delights include; soapstone countertops on maple shaker cabinets, open floor plan with warm pine floors, new windows and custom doors throughout. The first floor master bedroom includes an alcove perfect for a nursery, office or dressing room. Two living areas with a bath and laundry complete this level. The second floor enjoys two large sunny bedrooms and half bath. Renovations include; new insulation, a new roof, new siding, new furnace, metal lined chimney and a new hot water heater. Two pellet stoves were added that the current owner uses to heat the home during the winter. The private double lot is within walking distance to the village and its size adds many possibilities not afforded with a typical village lot.
