Nature's retreat meets character-rich New England living — a handcrafted 1950 Cape on ¾
acre backing the Squannacook Reservation.
Warm pine-paneled walls, gleaming hardwood floors, and a wood bay window frame the kind of home that feels immediately lived-in and loved. The main level offers two bedrooms, an updated eat-in kitchen with new cabinets and counters (2026), a spacious living room, and a full bath.
Upstairs, a generous primary bedroom and a vaulted wood-paneled bonus room - perfect as a study, studio, or guest space - share a second full bath. Three heating zones plus a heat pump ensure year-round comfort.
The ¾-acre lot is a naturalist's dream: direct access to the Squannacook Rail Trail and River, and abutting conservation land on two sides. A detached 225 sq ft carriage house with water service and pellet stove is ready to become an artist's studio, ADU, or fourth bedroom. A one-car garage, breezeway, patio, deck, shed, and chicken coop round out the property.
Recent updates include freshly painted interior and exterior (2025-2026), new carpeting, updated kitchen, newer roof (solar-ready south face), hardwired smoke/CO alarms, and a brand-new 4-bedroom septic (2017, Title 5 passed). 200-amp electric service.
