Listing broker remarks

Come see the timeless charm of this 1860's Colonial for yourself, where classic character blends beautifully with thoughtful updates throughout. An original exposed brick hearth at the fireplace, clawfoot tub, and original granite exterior steps preserve the character of the home, while updates including maple hardwood floors, wall-to-wall carpeting, fresh paint, Harvey windows, and new lighting fixtures provide the comfort of today. The remodeled kitchen features new cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, updated flooring, and a farmhouse sink, creating a welcoming space for everyday living. Outside, a new 14' x 24' shed with electricity offers exceptional space for storage, hobbies, or a workshop. Enjoy a convenient location less than a mile from the town beach and boat launch, as well as the town center, where you'll find the library, local shops, banking, and other everyday conveniences. Filled with history, character, and thoughtful updates, this is a wonderful opportunity to make a piece of the past your new home.— Daisy Hill Real Estate and Rentals
