27 Glen Street

Pull up a stool at the granite bar with your morning coffee, and you can talk with whoever's cooking on one side and whoever's at the dining table on the other. That easy, connected feel runs through the first floor of this renovated 1870 Colonial, where New England character meets an updated kitchen and baths, new electrical and new plumbing. The kitchen has granite counters, subway tile, soft gray cabinetry and stainless appliances, with a window over the sink looking out at the trees. A wide walkway and the pass-through bar connect it to the dining room and its tray ceiling, so dinner and conversation stay in one place. The living room is long and bright, with windows on two walls. The first-floor primary bedroom has its own tray ceiling and a private bath with shower. Laundry and a half bath are on the same floor, which keeps the everyday routine downstairs. Upstairs, one bedroom opens up to a vaulted ceiling with a high gable window and ceiling fan. Two more bedrooms and an oversized bath with a double vanity and a big curved tub complete the floor. Out back, the deck is where the day winds down, overlooking the yard and a tall row of evergreens, and in the fall the color comes right up to the railing. A walk-up attic gives you storage, and the sealed fieldstone basement holds the 200-amp service. Public water and sewer, paved driveway. Vacant and ready to see by appointment.
