Built in 1900 but updated along the way, this charming New Englander is within walking distance to the Town Library and all the amenities of lovely downtown Peterborough. The screened porch, flanked by lilac bushes, overlooks the large, level backyard which stretches all the way back to the Contoocook River. The entry room, which could be used as a dining room or den, flows into the bright eat-in-kitchen featuring a newly-installed dishwasher. Off the kitchen is a large laundry room (which doubles as a home office and has a closet) and recently renovated bathroom with antique claw-foot tub. The living room has hardwood floors, bay windows, and the classic trim detailing which can be found in much of the house. Up the stairs (graced by a stained glass window), are two spacious bedrooms, a smaller room with skylight with a great view of the back yard, three-quarter bath (also recently renovated) and attic storage space. Four windows will be replaced in September, prior to closing, to finish off the replacement of all but a few windows in the last five years. The front perennial garden features Shasta daisies, black-eyed Susans, blue Aster, lavender, variegated phlox and balloon flower. Large flowering quince bush adds privacy to backyard. Ample storage for lawn/gardening equipment can be found under back porch and in shed. Listing agents related to Sellers.
