About this home
The historic Cyrus and Bathsheba Fay House is an 18th-century property in the Fiskdale section of Sturbridge, MA. Based on available town information, there are no known historic restrictions. This freshly painted 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a first-floor primary bedroom with en-suite bath, original wood floors, three fireplaces, and a dining room with a slate floor, along with wood ceilings and a custom living-room ceiling reminiscent of an Old Sturbridge Village-style New England home. The kitchen includes granite countertops, a farmhouse sink, and built-in shelving, plus a bonus room for additional space. Set on a flat 0.58-acre lot, the property also includes a fenced portion of yard, a workshop, a private well, and a newly installed town septic tie-in. Good curb appeal and a private setting, minutes from Old Sturbridge Village and the Brimfield Antique Show, with easy access to the Mass Pike and I-84.
