Upstairs are five bedrooms, full bath and a large common area suitable for an office or family room. One bedroom even has a private open deck overlooking the back lawn. Every surface in the house will require refinishing and updating. The second floor bath still has a claw foot tub! There is a covered porch across the entire front of the house and the current 1913 Roxbury School is in plain sight across the street.

The 1 acre lot is mostly level and bordered by streets on three sides. There are mature Sugar and Norway Maples, lilacs, Norway Spruce numerous perennial plantings and a cluster of towering Aspen trees. The two car garage and summer sleeping cottage nestled into the hillside create the feeling of a family compound. Roof and vinyl siding are approximately 20 years old, garage and sleeping cottage will require roof repairs.Partial basement has oil fired heating (forced air) and hot water.

This property will require considerable work but the size of the buildings and wonderful location just one block off of Main Street are certainly worth the effort. Make an appointment to see this Village treasure today!
