Built in 1820, this home has been nicely maintained and updated, yet the original character and atmosphere remain intact, from the wide-plank pine floors to the impressive ceiling beams. The main level's open floor plan has soft afternoon light and a large fireplace in the living area. A spacious kitchen is well-equipped with plenty of cabinets and storage space, an eat-at bar, and a dining area with cathedral ceiling and sliding doors to the backyard. A large sun-filled formal dining room is great for holiday gatherings, and an additional room at the front of the house is currently used as an office, but can be customized to suit your lifestyle. Four bedrooms and full bath upstairs provide plenty of accommodations. A large barn and private backyard have many possibilities for outdoor living. The septic system is new, and the 4.8-acre lot is pre-approved for a 2-lot subdivision. Just a few miles away is the town of Bristol, with grocery stores, restaurants, a book store, and a village green. The flat acreage makes this property is great for the avid gardener, gentleman farmer, or small animal lover!
