Walking up a pea stone path lined with perennials to the front door, step into one of two front rooms. The living room is inviting and warm with a decorative fireplace with tile hearth. On the opposite side is the dining room. This room has a hearth and a gleaming Hearthstone Diva wood-fired stove that can cook your food and warm your home, too.

The kitchen spans the rear of the main part of the capes footprint. A smart layout that is very country in design, it has tons of counter space and clever storage bins, drawers and cabinetry. Appliances include a gas Jenn-Air cooktop, new double wall ovens, dishwasher and fridge. Whether you just like to cook or you want to grow and put up your own food, the space is here for one chef or several to work side by side.

Open to the kitchen is a lovely family or gathering room with brick fireplace with woodstove inserted for efficiency. Exposed beams, a partially open back staircase and French doors add to this rooms charm. A single door leads to a quiet 11 X 14 screen porch and double doors open onto the hidden patio. An updated half bath with laundry completes the first floor.

Upstairs, in the back of the house, the master bedroom is located over the family and measures 17 x 23. Look down onto the patio or out at the barn from here. Two front bedrooms with great character due to roof lines, a home office, a new bath with soaking tub/shower combo and an exercise area or play area complete this level. Mellow pine floors are throughout the house with tile in the baths.

Outside, around the house, enjoy water features including a fish pond, walkways lined with mature perennials and a private patio with built-in fire pit to sit and enjoy the sounds of nature. Everywhere you turn is attractive and buzzing with pollinators.

The outbuildings are practical and useful. The barn has housed sheep and cattle in the recent past and the coops are designed for birds with specific purposes. There are raised garden beds, very prolific stand of highbush blueberries, fruit trees and a pit greenhouse with a full concrete foundation and a chimney with a woodstove. Extend your growing time by 4 months or so utilizing this building. Details are below.

The land is typical for the area perfect for sheep, goats and a steer or two. There is 822 of road frontage affording great protections for other homes encroaching. You have neighbors, just not in immediate sight. You can clear more land up behind the barn if you care to or continue it as primarily a woodlot or a combination of both.
