Known as the Edward Spalding House, one of the first settlers in Chelmsford, this beautiful antique estate home built in 1664 is set on a stunning landscaped 1 acre lot complete with cabana and a fabulous in-ground pool with spacious patio for great summer entertaining. As you tour the home you'll notice period-era touches that have carried on through time. It's even believed that Henry Wadsworth Longfellow visited this home!

Cathedral ceiling in family room includes another fireplace and includes doors right out to a private back yard and pool area. The second floor includes four large bedrooms with ample closet space, and the door to a full walk up attic for storage. A two car attached garage completes the complex. New Furnace installed 2018.
