Property Description

Stepping onto this property feels like entering a preserved piece of early American architecture. Set on a peaceful, tree-lined parcel in North Branch, this custom New England style Saltbox home was built with unwavering dedication to authenticity and quality, creating a residence unlike anything else on the market. Built in 2012 and maintained with exceptional care, it showcases warm Southern Yellow Pine floors, solid 4-panel doors, and rich trim that adds depth and character throughout. The handicap-accessible main level offers a primary ensuite with custom closet shelving, first-floor laundry, and a layout designed for comfort and ease. Hand-crafted cabinetry enhances the kitchen, laundry, and baths with timeless beauty. Every detail tells a story: tumbled brick pavers, hand-forged wrought-iron hardware, and handmade lighting. These artisan elements create an atmosphere that feels both historic and intentionally curated. The home features 2x6 construction, closed-cell insulation, and Pella tilt-in windows. With 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2,090 sq ft of finished living space, the design is thoughtful and inviting. The full basement with 9-ft ceilings offers outstanding potential for finishing, hobbies, or workshop use, and connects directly to the oversized 2.5-car garage. Upstairs, generous bedrooms and a large walk-in storage room provide flexibility for future living space. Outdoors, a 30x38 pole barn with soaring ceilings, walkable loft, and electric hoist adds exceptional utility. The home is wired for a whole-house generator hookup. Mature trees, wildlife, and natural serenity surround the residence, creating a setting that feels secluded yet welcoming. This is a rare opportunity to own a handcrafted, architecturally faithful Saltbox blending historic charm with modern function. Appliances included: refrigerator, range, microwave, dishwasher, washer, dryer, water softener, and basement refrigerator.
