Nestled on a quiet dead-end street, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an ideal blend of character, beauty, and versatility, with frontage on the swimmable Mill River.

Outside, a sweet deck and backyard provide plenty of space for gardening, play, and pets, while tiered patios at the river's edge offer a truly special spot for morning coffee or simply watching the water go by. The bike path, Look Park, Musante Beach, and conservation land are all within walking distance. The living is easy with new roof in 2020, central AC, replacement windows, and natural gas Buderus heat and hot water. A rare combination of natural beauty, convenience, and flexible living on the river’s edge.
