Listing broker remarks

Tucked away on 3.3 expansive yet private acres, this home blends historic soul with thoughtful craftsmanship. This five-bedroom home plus office offers true flexibility in how those rooms are used: the first floor features a full bath and an office that could easily serve as a first-floor bedroom, with one of the upstairs rooms then used as an office or den. OR keep all five bedrooms upstairs and enjoy the first-floor room as a dedicated home office/playroom. Upstairs also includes two full bathrooms and a large storage space.First-floor laundry and plenty of storage in the basement round out the practical side of the home. A very large living/dining/sitting room offers plenty of space to gather, with an open footprint that flexes easily from formal entertaining to everyday family life. Hardwood floors flow through most of the home, and the kitchen and two bathrooms feature custom maple cabinetry. A freshly painted exterior offers a crisp, welcoming first impression. The true showstopper is the large English-style barn circa early eighteen hundreds, one of only two in Harvard -- sturdy, full of character, and full of potential — lots of possible uses for you to envision! Surrounding it is cleared land ideal for gardening, fenced-in pens, or play. Just moments from Harvard's town center, close to schools, Bare Hill Pond town beach, the library, and the General Store. A rare chance to own a piece of Harvard's timeless charm — with a layout flexible enough to grow and change with your needs.— Compass
