The stream can be heard from the porch or inside the house when the windows are open. This creek is a native brook trout stream complete with habitat and engineered rock sides to prevent erosion and to protect the integrity of stream and creek sides. Step into yesteryear with adorable 1700’s home with all the modern conveniences where peace and privacy abound. Fertile garden land, fenced side yard, spring with watercress. Come and sit and listen to the stream. Better yet have a picnic and wade in the cool spring fed stream. Bring a little love and elbow grease to this timeless beauty and make her your own. It’s not often such a unique home and property become available to be purchased. Turn this one into your own private retreat/park. Gated so no drive-byes.
