The home has had many recent updates including a new roof, a recently drilled well and exterior paint.

There is enough land to create a horse property with entrance through the existing property and keep the parcel whole to privately enjoy acreage no longer available this close to the Village. Possibilities abound! Property is occupied and all showings, including walking the Town Assessors Map Depicting the Lot bordering Essex Hills and Squire Lane to topacreage need confirmation as large, protective dog is in residence and needs to be removed. Also listed as Land under MLS 170612924.
