About this home

This well maintained Colonial is very much a 21st cent. home with its open floor plan and the way it flows outside to multi-tiered decks. The 12x26 familyroom is off the kitchen. Imagine, grilling on one of the decks while overlooking your private level fenced yard. The diningroom, livingroom, and two bedrooms’ bay windows are clad with wooden plantation shutters. Walk to town, trains, and leave your car home! Offer acceptance is contingent upon buyers agreeing to relocation addendum
