About this home
A One-of-a-Kind Property Where History Meets Modern Homesteading~A property with a story and a lifestyle all its own. Originally part of Martin Farm, this distinctive home sits on 0.44 acres just steps from the Braintree line and approximately 17 miles south of Boston. The current owners have brought the property back to its agricultural roots, creating a productive backyard garden with vegetables, fruit and berry bushes, a 9' x 14' greenhouse,and a state-of-the-art irrigation system that can be controlled from your phone even while you're away. The home features three bedrooms, with one currently transformed into an impressive pantry/laundry and food-preservation room. A Harvest Right freeze dryer makes it easy to preserve the garden's bounty, along with canning and dehydrating. Adding to the property's character are three working fireplaces and a large detached outbuilding that was previously used as a chicken coop, complete with an attached chicken run. A wonderful reminder of the property's agricultural past. The location combines a quiet, distinctive property with easy access to Boston and surrounding communities. An MBTA bus stop is approximately a two-minute walk away, with both the commuter rail and Braintree MBTA subway station approximately a 10-minute drive. A home with roots. A property with a purpose. A lifestyle with possibilities. Come See all this home has to offer! OPEN HOUSE SAT 10/10 from 11:00-1:00
