4 bedroom house for sale

Overview

On a dirt road in the hidden hills of Hampshire County, looking out onto fields and beaver ponds, is this handsome home, built in 1793 by one of the towns original settler families. The view is such that cars often slow to a roll to capture it when passing the opening in the tree line. Four true bedrooms, two baths (one with shower and one with soaking tub).

Serene and majestic, throughout the year, the location is a delight to experience- the changes in light and sounds- from peepers in the spring, to fireflies in the summer, to deer, bear, fox, beaver all through the fall. A nature lover's dream.The house retains great period details in two front parlors and a large living room with built-ins and historic paneling. Fantastic project for a lover of historic homesteads.16 of the 18 acres under conservation.
