Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street abutting the Nevins Bird Sanctuary, this charming Colonial offers peace, privacy, and prime access to nature and the nearby rail trail.

Other updates include paved driveway in 2022, crown molding installation in 2020, new washer & dryer in 2022, new hot water tank in 2019 and new 230 gallon oil tank in 2019. This home offers a rare blend of classic charm and modern upgrades, just minutes from Methuen Square, shopping, Route 93 and Route 2013—this home is truly a hidden gem... First showings will be at the open houses on May 31 and June 1 from 11:30am - 1:00pm EST.
