About 53/53a Bagdad Road
Discover rare historic charm blended with refined modern living in the historic 1716 Garrison house of Captain Jonathan Chesley. The lower level of the original home has become a fine 1100 sq.ft. apartment complete with modern amenities while retaining the ambiance of yesteryear. What was the original rear door now leads to a newly built spacious 4-bedroom home. Have the homes separate, or connected, for family or rental with separate driveways and entrances. The new home’s two-car garage faces the street with its guest entry on the side. Convenient to schools and the college town center, join others walking by and leave the cars at home! This is small town living at its best. The main house features large open spaces ready for your imagination; the well thought out quality backdrop includes hardwood floors, quartz countertops, the range hood which vents out, a microwave drawer, the large deck with gas connection for your grill, and more. Make this your place. Just move in and live free!
