Read the full listing description
Privately set at the end of a premiere Greenfield Hill neighborhood street, a meandering drive leads you to "Hummingbird Cottage". This 3.36 acre country paradise with two incredible new outbuildings (party barn with loft and soaring ceiling; and free-standing garage) has been remodeled, reimagined, and updated to perfection. Gorgeous mature trees, flowering bushes, and vibrant perennials adorn the magical acreage with small babbling brook. SPECIAL BONUS, the town recognizes this home to have a legal accessory apartment (can be an income producing rental). Entrance to the apartment is separate; apartment is on the 2nd floor. Cascading light fills this vintage farmhouse. The main level includes an open floor plan with dramatic high ceilings, skylights, beams, large living space and kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, laundry, and hardwood floors. The second level (accessory apartment if you’d like) is carpeted with family room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms, & a full bath. Full house remodel with new mechanicals and appliances has been ongoing since 2014 with a new roof, gutters, and new septic installed just last year. The new 18'x24' Party Barn and 12'x18' shed were added to the property in 2019/2020. The current owner has thought of it all and is ready to pass this inspiring property on to the next lucky owner.
