1917 Main Street North

Built in 1854, this 5.91 acre property offers an incredible value impossible to replicate today for the price. The property includes an Italianate stone home with an approx 675 sq foot retail/office room with a separate entrance at the driveway, a 28' x 53' post and beam barn with a full walkout lower level, a large pond, stone walls, incredible perennial garden surround, and a 21' x 45' accessory building with heat - great guest house or in-law potential. Inspired by Tuscan villas, Italianate style homes, usually square and symmetrical, were popular in the late 19th C. in New England. Park-like grounds; large pond has goldfish (see pics).
