Nestled on a magnificent 3.5 acre lot in the desirable South Cheshire neighborhood, this home is a part of and contributes to the beauty of the historic district of the town of Cheshire. As you approach the grounds, you will be greeted by the original stone walls, a serene backdrop and mature landscaping. Connecting this 19th century home with its past includes the expansive Farmington Canal Trail. Your path to history will be no easy feat, as the home and detached barn are in need of refurbishment. You can however, get a glimpse of the potential through the beauty of the fireplace which is surrounded by wood paneling and dark brick reminiscent of the time period. Other redeeming features include a recent septic from 2004, city water available on the street, newer circular driveway, built-ins and the opportunity for a first floor master. 479 Mount Sanford Road was among the first few homes built in Cheshire and it is in search of someone who has a creative eye in addition to the resources needed to take on a project. For your efforts, you will be astonishingly rewarded with a gorgeous home that comes with a piece of history. Property is one of 8 homes in the South Brooksvale Cheshire Historic District, restrictions apply.
