40 Somers Rd, East Longmeadow

Listing broker remarks

Presenting the oldest brick house in East Longmeadow~196 year of incredible antique charm and history. The absolutely incredible bonus is this oversized lot has the "potential" of an additional building lot--buyers to do due diligence with the town to explore this opportunity. This 2,646 square foot Greek Revival, originally constructed in 1830, offers a stunning antique home delightful for lovers of the historic charms of yesteryear. The layout features a classic Greek Revival style with long narrow architecture and narrow front-side facing on Somers Rd. The home is welcoming offering 4 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms with 7 Rumsford fireplaces ("A Rumford fireplace is a tall, shallow fireplace designed by Count Rumford in 1796 to maximize radiant heat and eliminate smoke"), wide pine board wood flooring~12-to-14-inches throughout the home creating a beautiful, comfortable home. The unique charming features continue throughout the home with two stairwells to the second floor as well as the old well with pully-system in the kitchen~wonderfully the home is on gas heat, public water and sewer. This is truly a unique opportunity to enhance the incredible antique features while also adding your own personal modern touches. The sellers have resided within this incredible property for nearly 50 years. These types of homes do not come along often, please enjoy in partaking a private showing to see all that a true antique property has to offer.— Happy Valley Realty Group, LLC
