What's special
TRUE ANTIQUE COLONIAL FARMHOUSE! Most of the original 1801 home still exists! Kitchen, and full and 1/2bath, were modernized at some point. Three fireplaces, wainscotting, original floors, along with more original details are still here! Two bedrooms, bath, and, storage are found on the second floor, and the "attic" is for a bedroom, play space, or way more storage! There's also a three bay garage with a screen room, and several livestock sheds. Plenty of gardening spots are for flowers or veggies. The large field is ready to fence for horses, sheep, or maybe a cow or two if you want to really farm. The field for many years was for growing corn to sell at the upper roadside. Perfect, peaceful Petersham Center is nearby with the Town Hall, stone Library, quaint church, and the Petersham Country Store. Come see 61 West Road, then pop over to the store for soup, great sandwiches, Dean's Beans Coffee, or baked goodies! See The Common for picnics, Band Concerts, and Farmers Market.
