Set along Clinton Road, just down the street from Davis Farmland, this circa 1800 home has been thoughtfully restored and awaits only the final finishing touches by its next steward. Originally built as a classic "two-over-two" Federal, it has grown over the years to its current four-bedroom form. The spacious kitchen boasts exposed beams and a large bay window looking out to the oversized yard. Two formal front parlors flank a center entry hall and a cozy office in the rear of the house. Upstairs, three large bedrooms and one smaller bedroom share an ample and updated full bathroom. A second full bathroom on the first floor is adjacent to the mudroom/laundry, which also lead to the separate-entry large home office. Two chimneys service multiple fireplaces that can possibly be brought back to working order. Outside, the large yard is bordered by thick woods, and an ample storage shed is perfect for the gardener or outdoor hobbyist. Worcester is 20 minutes away, Boston less than 1 hour.
