Beautiful, eclectic brick & granite Cape farmhouse presents a rare opportunity for the discerning Buyer. A spacious house of quality construction maintained and appreciated for nearly 200 years. In the Main house are 10 well proportioned rooms, 2 baths and an attached 2-car garage with storage shed & exceptional Barn within the city limits of Auburn - downtown amenities, recreation, transportation, employment, education & medical centers 'around the corner.'
The tiled Mud Rm accesses the main house, garage, backyard and guest quarters. The cozy, panelled Den has a wood burning fireplace and the friendly Four- season Porch/Family Room is warmed by the afternoon sun. A Jotul woodstove sets the mood and adds an alternate heat source.
Housed in a 26x18 addition is an eat-in kitchen. A bank of windows facing the backyard, reveals a farmer's porch & fills the room with light & fresh air. Counter space & storage exceed most criteria! Commercial grade tile, large island, 9 foot ceilings and incorporation of the original brick exterior present a canvas for your dream kitchen. This space invites entertaining family, friends and associates year-round.
Two of the three baths were updated in 2008. Throughout the house are many 'built-ins',' hardwood & pine floors and architechtural details.
