Listing broker remarks

Motivated sellers, Maine bound — and $10K at closing, spend it how you wish. Some houses are built. This one was made—two centuries of seasons, life that keeps pumpkin pine floors gleaming and fanlight windows catching the light. Set in-town on 2.4 beautiful corner acres where stone walls trace the land, wooded privacy on one side, a barn and chicken coop beyond the garden—this large four-bedroom 1820 Greek Revival sits deep in history. Even to the lawn a double glider, where someone's grandmother once poured tea, children learned that afternoons could last forever. It stays. Inside, original doors throughout, French doors off the living room, four fireplaces with one still burning, a pellet stove, and a large open farmhouse kitchen—unhurried, ready for the right hands. Sturbridge earns loyalty—maybe you find a trail or walk to the Publick House, visit the Village, the Market, or even discover a library worth knowing. With Route 84 and 90 close, this location is why you call this Home.— Coldwell Banker Community REALTORS®
