About this home

Life is Good! And it’s even better in this beautifully transformed 1867 New England Colonial, where historic character meets a fresh farmhouse vibe. Turnkey and wonderfully located just a short stroll from the North Reading Town Common, library, and schools, this warm and inviting home is full of charm, comfort, and possibilities. The thoughtfully renovated interior offers the best of both worlds, open-concept spaces for gathering plus private rooms for work and relaxation. A heated sunroom welcomes you in, while the comfortable living room and front-to-back dining room and kitchen create a natural flow for everyday living and entertaining. Upstairs, the spacious primary bedroom features vaulted ceilings and two oversized closets, joined by two additional bedrooms. Numerous major updates in recent years include siding, shingles, windows and doors, kitchen countertops and backsplash, an updated bath, and a newer boiler with tankless hot water. Freshly painted inside and out, the home is truly move-in ready. Outside, enjoy wonderful spaces for relaxing, gardening, hobbies, or entertaining, including a charming 10x10 “she shed” or “man cave.” And then there’s the 1910 three-story detached barn, a rare and exciting opportunity just waiting for your vision, whether for storage, studio space, workshop, or potential future conversion. A special property with history, updates, character, and tremendous potential, right in the heart of North Reading!
