20 County Street

Welcome to the P. Carpenter House, ca. 1774. Carefully stewarded by the current owners for the last 40+ years, this classic Farmhouse Cape offers historic charm balanced with numerous updates and thoughtful renovations. Features include wide plank floors, an unusually flexible and open floor plan with a 1st floor bedroom option + full bath. There is also a sun-filled dining room, a lovely screened porch, and a laundry. A spacious mudroom leads to an oversized attached 2-car garage plus greenhouse, wood room, and a storage space above. The second floor has three bedrooms, a bath, a dressing room, and a fantastic loft studio space. Recent improvements include exterior painting and new mechanicals; solar panels (owned, not leased) which provide significant savings on electricity costs for the home. The beautiful and well-established perennial gardens include a rain garden and well-cared for trees, one of which boasts a treehouse. A detached 'sugar house' provides plenty of additional storage and another studio opportunity. Whether it's an easy commute to Providence or Boston that appeals, this rural yet convenient location is hard to beat.
