Tucked in on a private lane in the middle of Covered Bridge Farms, this c. 1845 farmhouse offers many possibilities for the old house lover. Do you want a fun project? Refinish the original pine floors, restore the fireplace in the master bedroom, expose beams, add shutters and stucco over the existing siding to enhance the classic architectural style.

Fish, kayak and play, or train your dog in the pond, enjoy the deer, foxes, raccoons, rabbits, geese and groundhogs who are your closest neighbors. You cannot over improve for the area. Bring your imagination. Detached oversized two car garage, shed, small pole building/run in shed, pier and garden area are just a few of the amenities. You cannot subdivide, but you can add a guest house, in-law cottage.
