This home's potential is as significant as the lot! This charming garrison colonial home has cedar clapboards and connects the 2-car garage with a kitchen that appears like a finished breezeway from the outside. Both main and upper levels sport solid oak hardwood flooring that can be restored to its gleaming original splendor and will look like the day they were installed once done. The home's layout is your traditional center stair colonial: The large living room to the left adjoins the family room, offering a raised hearth fireplace for easier use. Sliders in the family room lead to an ample deck that overlooks a verdant and private rear yard. Want a garden? Here's your chance. The kitchen is accessed by either the family room or formal dining room, making it a breeze to serve family and friends food and drink. This home is your chance to roll up your sleeves and create your dream space. With 1,692 square feet of living area and a full basement, there's plenty of room to let your imagination run wild. And did we mention the lot? At just over 2.31 acres, there's a lot of outdoor space to play with...so get your gardening clothes on, or maybe you've always wanted to raise chickens. Maybe both! Located just 3 miles from Putnam center, you'll have quick access to various dining and shopping options and easy access to Route I-395 for those who commute or love a good road trip. You might say this home has good bones - and many of them - it's just waiting for a little TLC. Wheth
