Cheerful and comfortable with a “nestle-yourself-right-in feeling! Thoughtfully designed by owners who loved to travel and host family/fellow travelers. Attention was given to create rooms for gatherings, guest/family visits, hobbies, office work and quiet contemplation. Just enough outdoor area for puttering and raised bed gardening. Situated on a dead end street, with woods and Kettle Pond on the back border. A neighborhood filled with the lively energy of the high/middle schools, hospital, professional offices, pharmacies, banks, restaurants, a grocery market, a bookstore and Oak Grove Elementary School are all a short walk away!
