A LOVINGLY MAINTAINED AND ICONIC COLONIAL-ERA HOMESTEAD IN SEARCH OF ITS NEW STEWARDS...WELCOME TO THE HISTORIC 1776 RIDDLE BROOK FARM! Just past a babbling brook in the heart of Bedford's historic district you'll discover rolling green acreage lined with rock walls and dotted with old-growth trees - it's the perfect setting for one of Bedford's first and finest homes. Wide plank wood floors and original staircase welcome guests to the foyer where a secret closet beneath the stairs will delight. Imagine generations of conversations that have taken place over dinner in the bookshelf-lined dining room or by firelight in the family room where exposed beams and warm wood paneling create a cozy atmosphere. Curl up with a book in the adjacent sitting room or enjoy balmy afternoons outside on the brick patio that takes in pretty views of peaceful farmland. The living room enjoys glorious morning sun and the sizable eat-in kitchen boasts warm cabinetry and abundant counter space. There's a potting shed for the hobbyist and a lovingly restored red barn with plenty of room for raising livestock and chickens as you create your homesteading dream. In the spring try your hand at sugaring on the property's numerous maple trees, in the summer tend to the bounty of the vegetable garden, and in winter you can harvest your own evergreen tree. ENJOY THE CHARM OF YESTERYEAR AND CREATE BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES IN THIS EXQUISITE ANTIQUE HOME! Showings begin at the Open House on Friday 4/23 at noon.
