Nestled in a bucolic setting on more than ¾ of an acre this shabby chic farmhouse is situated in one of Essex’ most sought after locations. The home is tucked away on a quiet dead-end street with large fenced yard surrounded by beautiful mature trees and plantings. Close to downtown, boating, greenbelt trails, shopping, and route 128 makes this property extremely convenient. Step inside the cozy living room with wood floors and an oversized bay window offering ideal light exposure. In the kitchen all stainless appliances, butcher block countertops, and wood cabinets. The dining area off the kitchen includes a built-in hutch for additional storage. With double French doors leading onto a private back deck. Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms. A beautiful home with great potential to expand. A fantastic backyard. And a stunning 20’x24’ outbuilding with half bath, skylight, generous attic storage, and large deck lending itself to numerous different uses. This is truly a rare find!
