Step back in time with this c.1785 colonial home, set on just under 6 acres that invite endless possibilities. With over 2,400 square feet, the residence offers a warm blend of historic character and untapped potential. Spacious living and dining rooms are filled with natural light through oversized windows, framing tranquil pond views, perfect for quiet mornings or relaxed afternoons. A welcoming front porch and patio provide space to enjoy the serene setting, while indoors you'll find five bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a first-floor laundry room for added convenience. A detached outbuilding expands the opportunities, whether used as a workshop, for equipment, or to support your vision of a hobby farm. The nearly level acreage is ideal for gardens, pasture, or raising animals, making this property well-suited for a self-sustaining lifestyle. The pond enhances the setting year-round, from fishing in the warmer months to ice skating or gathering around a winter bonfire. With its combination of historic charm, flexible spaces, and peaceful water views, this property provides a rare opportunity to create the rural lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
