This nearly 1200 square foot 1846 Colonial has been well-kept, and shows the owner's immense pride in ownership. The vintage themed, high-ceiling eat-in kitchen with gas appliances has a washer and dryer in the corner, with a reproduction tin backsplash and plenty of counter space. The white bead-board and large windows give the kitchen a sunny, airy feel. The mid-century cabinetry has been kept, painstakingly painted, and updated - no cheap laminate cabinets to contend with.

Off of the kitchen is a sliding door to the screened-in porch with a large, comfortable hammock-style swing, perfect for watching the wildlife on the water with a cup of tea or coffee.

The large, yet cozy living room has a storage closet, access to the basement, and best of all - an adorable vintage bathroom with black and white diner-style linoleum flooring and aqua fixtures.

Also downstairs is an oversized second bedroom, which could also be used as an office, or Air B&B style guest accommodations. The bedroom has a slider to the outdoor deck with water views, as well as built-in cabinetry, closet space, and a warm, inviting gas stove.

The winding staircase to the upper floors opens up onto a large, sunny office room, perfect for anyone working from home. It could also be a used as a fantastic craft or game room.

The upstairs bathroom is ample, and recently renovated. It has hardwood floors, a new tub enclosure, and marble counters.

The master bedroom has wonderful built-in closet space and crown molding, as well as a great view of the backyard and Mill River.

One of the unexpected features of this upstairs space is a generously sized dressing room with built-in closet space, perfect for the individual or couple with a large wardrobe collection!

The oversized backyard features an above-ground pool, perfect for hot summer days. There is ample room for gardening, volleyball, or even kickball. Who wouldn't want a kickball game in their backyard?

This property is mere steps from Willow Rest, a country-style convenience store and cafe, where the prospective owner can get coffee, breakfast, ready-made sandwiches, and catch up on all the happenings in the area.
