Historic 1800s Colonial with Endless Potential – Adjacent to Upton Community Park! Step back in time with this charming 1800s home built by Minister George Cook around 1845. Nestled on over half an acre, this all-brick colonial retains its high ceilings, grand woodwork, and sun-filled rooms, offering timeless character with a solid foundation. The spacious main level includes a formal living room, a separate family room, a dining room, and a kitchen, all waiting for your vision. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms plus a den, perfect for a home office or additional living space. Situated next to Upton Community Center & Park, this home enjoys a beautiful park-like setting with direct access to over 8 acres of the open park space, with a community center building, pavilions, child playground equipment, and a softball field—a rare bonus for outdoor enthusiasts, gatherings, and recreation. Cherished by its previous owner, this home is sound but ready for a few cosmetic updates to suit your style. Lots of historic charm waiting for the right person to make it shine. Outside, the large yard and outbuildings provide plenty of space for storage and outdoor enjoyment. Best of all—low taxes, no deed restrictions and no HOA, make this an excellent opportunity to own a piece of history with freedom and flexibility. Call to Schedule Your Private Showing Today!
