This home presents a rare opportunity to do something a little different in your home buying search and process. This home is a "new old home that has been rebuilt, and expanded to be finished as a semi-custom build. Local builders have built a new home while incorporating some of the 1900s home into the design and layout. The project will be completed by the buyers; the architectural plans for the house will be made available to the buyer. After purchase of the existing home, buyers will be able to select and personalize interior finishes to their own taste and style. You can complete this home to your own specifications.  The design work and the heavy work has all been done and the plans will be made available to the buyers. The plumbing is in place on each floor for the three baths in the home as well as a  half bath and laundry on the first floor. The bathrooms have now been completed with fixtures and tiling.  The first floor is almost a complete blank slate for your kitchen, dining and living area. It truly does fulfill the open concept! There is a 300 square foot 3 season room to the rear of the home overlooking the large backyard with a charming storage shed tucked in the corner. There is lots of private space for children and pets to enjoy. There is new electric with two meters (one for the accessory apartment) and a new asphalt shingle roof. There are 3 mini splits with 7 blower units for high efficiency heat and a/c. The windows are new Marvin Integrity for efficiency as well. The "old section of the house has rock wool insulation in the cavities; the "new section has closed cell spray foam. There is an attached oversized garage with a self contained studio apartment above the garage for personal or income use (if owner resides in the building). The apartment has its own electric service and private entrance. A new mini split has been added to the apartment. The second level of the  main house has two bedrooms and a connecting bath. The double front doors of the house remain as well as some other original architectural details. The heated basement of the house, with walk out to the backyard, is open and could be finished to create even more living space. All work for the house has passed local preservation laws with permits. Located in the center of the village within walking distance to all the village has to offer and one block to Bassett Medical Center. Upon completion, this will be a lovely home where the love of history meets the desires of the modern world.
