LAST SOLD FOR First time on market
PROS Perched on a small hill that was once held an apple orchard and less than 10 minutes from Ski Ward, this farmhouse, custom-built in 1993, has an eat-in kitchen with a vaulted ceiling, skylights, a stone fireplace, stainless appliances, oak cabinets, and quartz counters. The family room offers a pellet stove, myriad windows, hardwood flooring, and vaulted ceiling. The laundry room with sink, the master, and a full bath are also on the first floor. The second-floor balcony, which overlooks the foyer and kitchen and affords access to the walk-up attic, leads to the other bedrooms and second full bath. The home has a stone and cedar-clapboard front and a fish pond. CONS The long driveway will probably need to be plowed.
