Mature trees and the sound of the waterfall whooshing through the ravine below make for amazing summers on your north-side deck. Winter brings snow-covered branches and distant views from your living room to the hills across the Connecticut river. This is an artsy home featuring lots of creative ways to live big while living small. A brand new super-efficient three-zone gas heating system, newly added attic insulation and a Jotul woodstove make winters extra affordable. In summer, there are plenty of (thermal-pane) windows to throw open and enjoy the cross ventilation that will make a/c all but unnecessary. Walk to Wesleyan, Middlesex Hospital or downtown, and come back to your little urban oasis. A new Wolf gas cook top in the island kitchen, new 200 amp electrical service, wood floors throughout, organic gardens and a full walkout basement for storage and/or a workshop add to the holistic value of this unique 1860s home. Great neighbors, great neighborhood.
