This charming New Englander offers a fantastic opportunity to own a large home on an expansive acre of land, complete with an additional strip of property across the street that fronts the Black River. Conveniently located just minutes from I-91, Charlestown, and downtown Springfield, this property offers both privacy and accessibility. While the house could benefit from cosmetic updates, it has been lovingly maintained by the same owner for 9 years. The essential systems and utilities have been kept in good working order, ensuring the home is ready for immediate occupancy. Whether you're looking for a project or a home to live in while making improvements, this property is a perfect fit. The house was originally a 4-bedroom home and could easily be converted back to its original layout (the town still lists it as a 4-bedroom). Currently, two of the bedrooms have been combined into one larger room. Part of the barn/garage has already been started on as living space, with new drywall, windows, and a roughed-in bathroom, offering the potential for even more living area. The large, level yard is ideal for outdoor activities and gardening. Inside, the home features a spacious eat-in kitchen, a lovely 3-season porch, a mudroom/laundry room, and a massive walk-in closet attached to the master bedroom. The wood stove provides cozy warmth throughout the home and serves as an excellent secondary heat source. Don't miss out on this opportunity to own a piece of New England charm!
