Step back in time with this charming 1840s antique Cape, once home to blacksmith Magnus Ridlon, rich in local history and timeless character. This beautifully preserved 3-bedroom home offers flexible living space—with one room easily serving as a den or dining room—alongside thoughtful updates that enhance comfort without compromising charm. You'll find a fully insulated and heated craft room perfect for hobbies or quiet retreat, a peaceful back screen porch ideal for summer evenings, and a stunning barn with a full second level and expansive attic space—offering exciting potential for an accessory dwelling unit or commercial use with town approval. Original features like wide plank floors and period-style wallpaper speak to the home's heritage, while recent updates including new windows, added insulation, and new exterior doors help maintain warmth during the winter months. The furnace has been professionally serviced annually. Set on a picturesque lot with lovely curb appeal, this property is just a short stroll to the library, local bakery, post office, and more. A rare opportunity to own a piece of history with room to make it your own.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
