Imagine having a beautiful view of Davidsons Mill Pond on this nearly 2-acre lot! This charming 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch is set back from the road, offering a peaceful and secluded feel. Adjacent to protected conservation lands, you'll have no future neighbors except for the fish in the pond. The foyer features a convenient guest closet, leading into a spacious living room that flows into the dining area. Sliding doors from the dining room open to the backyard, perfect for al fresco dining or unwinding with a drink. The kitchen, with original hardwood cabinets, is filled with natural light from a window overlooking the backyard. Down the hallway are two generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space and a full hall bath. The primary bedroom includes an en-suite bath and an extended closet. All floors are original hardwood, with carpet placed over them. The basement offers a versatile rec room, workshop, utility area, and access to the 2-car garage. The well-maintained oil-fired furnace and protected oil tank provide peace of mind. With almost 2 acres of space, there's plenty of room for outdoor living, whether you dream of creating a patio, a sports area, or expanding the vegetable gardens. Whether you update the existing home or build a new one, this location can't be beat.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
