In the heart of West Acton Village, this charming antique offers a unique combination of village living with a large, private, fenced-in backyard. A hidden oasis surrounded by trees, yet steps from the shops, restaurants, schools, playground, and other amenities in the village. Full of history, there are unique details throughout the home that point to its past, while features like the updated kitchen with granite counters, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar, and sizable eat-in area support the lifestyles of today. The family room offers space to gather around the cozy fireplace, while the living room/office/playroom is a sunny space ready to be whatever you’d like. There is also a large screened-in porch for entertaining or taking in the peaceful views of the barn and yard beyond. The barn is full of character and offers storage, workshop space, historic charm and is full of possibilities. Upstairs find three bedrooms, all with wood floors, plus easy access to storage.
