371 Main Street in Ashfield MA

Right in the center of scenic Ashfield MA sits this diamond-in-the-rough, 317 Main Street.  A 5 bedroom, 2 bath, 2866 sf family home on nearly an acre of land.  The original house was built in 1780, while a large addition was added roughly 100 years later.  The architectural style is Colonial revival with a farmhouse flare.  While the house will need some work, it has many lovely architectural details:  slate roof (in good condition!), built in cabinetry, tin ceilings, original wood floors, a beadboard pantry and an wonderful country sink, a front porch as well as a porch off of the second floor - all set upon a 0.96 acre lot in the heart of downtown Ashfield.       Home to many artists and artisans - Ashfield is a lovely hill town with a charming downtown center, boasting The Double Edge Theatre, Elmer's Store and restaurant, Ashfield Lake, and the DAR State Forest is just down the road.  Ashfield is home of the wonderful Ashfield Fall Festival, a major destination for locals.  The 30 minute drive to Ashfield from Northampton is the epitome New England charm and beauty - rolling hills, lakes, farmland and stone walls abound.  This wonderful and historic home in the heart of Ashfield is listed for $129,000.  For more information or to set up a showing, please contact Katie Lyons katielyons@mapleandmainrealty.com.
