Charming antique Cape c.1730 with tasteful updates and incredible homesteading potential on a 1-acre corner lot. This 3-bed, 2-bath home blends historic character—wide oak/pine floors, solid wood doors, antique farmers sink, large fieldstone fireplace in the open living room, and a cozy wood stove—with energy efficient upgrades including a 15.49kW solar system (2020), solar hot water preheat, and updated windows. Outside, enjoy a large enclosed porch, greenhouse, and abundant plantings: berries, peaches, pears, apples, cherries, rhubarb, and mature asparagus. The 6,600 sq ft garden with drip irrigation, fenced paddock with solar electric fencing and chicken coop are perfect for supporting a sustainable lifestyle. Two-zone heat, jet tub, and scenic views with no immediate neighbors complete the package. A rare opportunity for peaceful country living or full-scale homesteading!
